Abstract:
Enlarged follicles associated with multiple unerupted teeth always comprise an area of considerable interest for oral and maxillofacial surgeons. The condition of multiple calcifying hyperplastic dental follicles is extremely rare and is characterized by multiple unerupted teeth with abundant calcifications and odontogenic epithelial rests in the enlarged dental follicles. We report an interesting case of multiple calcifying hyperplastic dental follicles in a 16-year-old healthy male patient.
