This case report details a rare dental anomaly in a young adult with five extra mandibular premolars. Most supernumerary premolars, like those in this case, are found erupted.

Area of Science:

Dentistry
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
Dental Anomalies

Background:

Supernumerary teeth are a common dental anomaly, but supernumerary premolars are less frequent.
The prevalence of supernumerary premolars in the general population ranges from 0.14% to 0.64%.

Observation:

A case of a 22-year-old patient presenting with five supernumerary premolars in the mandible is described.
These anomalies included both impacted and erupted teeth.

Findings:

Approximately 75% of supernumerary premolars are typically found to be erupted.
The specific case involved a higher-than-average number of supernumerary mandibular premolars.

Implications:

This case highlights the importance of thorough dental examinations for identifying rare anomalies.

Understanding the eruption patterns of supernumerary premolars aids in treatment planning.

Further research into the etiology and management of multiple supernumerary premolars is warranted.
