Abstract:
A case is presented in which two supernumerary teeth developed in the mandibular premolar region during orthodontic treatment. Their presence was only detected on a routine post-treatment radiograph. The potential hazards of space closure with such teeth present are considered, although there were no detrimental effects in the case illustrated.
