    This case report details managing an impacted mandibular premolar with a large crown defect. Histology confirmed the non-carious nature of the lesion, offering insights into ectopic tooth management.

    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Oral Surgery
    • Orthodontics

    Background:

    • Ectopic eruption of mandibular premolars can present diagnostic and management challenges.
    • Large radiolucencies in unerupted teeth require careful evaluation to determine etiology.
    • Non-carious defects in developing teeth are uncommon but necessitate thorough investigation.

    Observation:

    • A case of an ectopically impacted mandibular left second premolar is presented.
    • Radiographic examination revealed a significant radiolucency within the tooth's crown.
    • The tooth required surgical, orthodontic, and restorative intervention.

    Findings:

    • Histological examination confirmed the radiolucency was not of carious origin.
    • The findings support existing literature on non-carious developmental defects in teeth.

  • Successful management involved a multidisciplinary approach.

    • Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of differential diagnosis for radiolucencies in impacted teeth.
    • It underscores the need for integrated surgical, orthodontic, and restorative planning.
    • The findings contribute to understanding the management of complex ectopic eruption cases.
