Area of Science:

Dentistry
Oral Surgery
Medical Technology

Background:

Supernumerary teeth can cause delayed eruption, malocclusion, and cysts.
Surgical extraction is standard but risky for adjacent tooth development.

Observation:

A novel computer-assisted and navigation-guided surgical approach was used.
This technique was applied to a case of complicated impacted supernumerary teeth.

Findings:

The navigation system enabled accurate localization of the supernumerary teeth.
The procedure resulted in minimal invasion and reduced risk of damaging developing permanent teeth.

Implications:

This technology offers a safer and more precise method for complex dental extractions.
It may improve treatment planning and surgical outcomes for impacted supernumerary teeth.
