Multiple supernumerary teeth, extra teeth not linked to syndromes, are rare. This case highlights a non-syndromic occurrence in an adolescent

Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Pediatric Dentistry

Background:

  • Supernumerary teeth are developmental anomalies, occurring more frequently in the permanent dentition.
  • While often associated with genetic syndromes, non-syndromic cases present unique diagnostic and management challenges.
  • Early identification is crucial for preventing complications such as impaction, crowding, and malocclusion.

Observation:

  • A case report of an adolescent male presenting with multiple supplemental supernumerary teeth.
  • The supernumerary teeth were incidentally discovered in the mandibular premolar region during a routine radiographic examination.
  • No associated systemic conditions or known genetic syndromes were identified in the patient.

Findings:

  • The presence of multiple supernumerary teeth without any underlying systemic condition or syndrome is uncommon.

  • This finding underscores the importance of thorough radiographic assessment in adolescent patients, even in the absence of clinical symptoms.
  • The mandibular premolar region was affected, indicating a specific pattern of dental anomaly.
  • Implications:

    • Highlights the importance of recognizing and managing non-syndromic multiple supernumerary teeth.
    • Suggests the need for periodic clinical and radiographic monitoring to assess the behavior and potential complications of these extra teeth.
    • Contributes to the understanding of the prevalence and clinical presentation of rare dental anomalies in pediatric populations.
