Management of a maxillary central incisor impacted by a supernumerary tooth.

Supernumerary teeth in the maxillary midline are common and can present both esthetic and pathologic problems that can be extremely difficult to solve. Early detection of the mesiodens is most important if such complications are to be avoided. This case required both surgical and orthodontic treatment to bring an unerupted, impacted maxillary central incisor into position. Using a combination of conservative surgical treatment and careful orthodontic management, the tooth was brought into good position in the dental arch and injury to root structure and surrounding oral tissues was avoided.

Mandibular midline supernumerary tooth: a case report.

Occurrence of a supernumerary tooth in the mandibular incisor region is uncommon. This report describes a rare case of mandibular midline supernumerary tooth causing crowding in the anterior region. The supernumerary tooth was extracted.

Molariform supernumerary tooth--a case report.

The occurrence of a single supernumerary tooth in the upper canine region a rare condition is reported. The crown resembles a molar tooth, thus suggesting a molariform supernumerary tooth.

Intracranial supernumerary tooth. Case report.

Case report of an accidentally diagnosed supernumerary tooth in the superior orbital fissure. Computed tomography (CT) contributed with a more precise localization of the tooth being situated between the orbit and the brain. CT also showed that there was no cyst or other pathological process around the supernumerary tooth, which is plausible and frequently reported in the literature.

A premaxilla with a supernumerary tooth indicating a developmental region with a variety of dental abnormalities: a report of nine cases.

The aim of this study was to elucidate whether a premaxilla with a supernumerary tooth has additional dental abnormalities. The study does not include premaxillas with a mesiodens, only premaxillas with parasagittally located supernumerary teeth. Radiographs from eight children, followed from 1 year and 5 months to 11 years and 5 months in the municipal dental health service in Denmark, were analyzed. One patient was seen only once. Dental abnormalities recorded included: invaginations on permanent incisors, resorption of roots of incisors, curved roots of incisors, delayed eruption, and delayed formation of roots. The study shows that there are dental abnormalities within the premaxillary region where the supernumerary tooth is located. This indicates that, apart from the supernumerary tooth, a more widespread deviation from normal conditions including tooth malformation, arrested eruption, and root resorption occur within the premaxillary region. The most important outcome of this study is that in the region with a supernumerary tooth the adjacent incisor shows delayed eruption after surgical removal of the supernumerary tooth. The deviations in root morphology, including root resorption, are not limited to patients who have had orthodontic treatment, but patients who did not receive orthodontic treatment also revealed deviations in root morphology. Therefore the treatment outcome can be different from the expected outcome.

A supernumerary tooth fused to the facial surface of a maxillary permanent central incisor: case report.

A case of a supernumerary tooth fused to the facial surface of a maxillary permanent central incisor is reported. Root canal therapy on the maxillary central incisor was performed due to pulpal communication between the supernumerary tooth and the maxillary central incisor after removing the supernumerary tooth structure. The communication was sealed with mineral trioxide aggregate. The difference between fusion and gemination is discussed.

Follow-up of the intracranial supernumerary tooth.

A rare case of an intracranially located supernumerary tooth was described, observed over a period of 14 years, where movement was established laterally in relation to the referent Carthesian coordinate system, down and forward with rotation around the anteroposterior axis. During skull growth, the skull base angle changed by 20 degrees, but this movement only affected the change in tooth position slightly. During the observation period, no further changes in the neurological findings were observed.

Bilateral maxillary fourth molars and a supernumerary tooth in maxillary canine region--a case report.

The occurrence of supernumerary teeth is a relatively uncommon dental anomaly. The aetiology is not clear. Supernumerary teeth have frequently been observed as solitary teeth and impacted in the maxillary arch. This case report describes the rare presence of bilateral maxillary fourth molars and a supernumerary tooth in the maxillary canine region. On the left side, the third molar was extracted first, allowing the fourth molar to move into a more favourable position for later extraction. Two-year postoperative radiography confirmed that the supernumerary tooth had migrated occlusally and mesially permitting a safer extraction procedure.
