A supernumerary tooth is that which is present additionally to the normal series and can be found in any region of the dental arch. An impacted tooth is defined as the one which is embedded in the alveolus, so that its eruption is prevented, or the tooth is locked in position by bone or the adjacent teeth. The occurrence of multiple supernumerary t...

The teeth follow a favorable sequence of eruption on the development of a normal occlusion, but some disturbance of that mechanism at the period of transition of the mixed denture for the permanent one, may provoke alterations in the sequence or even in the eruption path, resulting in impactation of teeth. The permanent maxillary canine, after the...
Background
The aim of this study was to evaluate the ability of oral/maxillofacial surgeons (OMFSs) and orthodontists to predict third molar eruption by examining a simple panoramic radiograph in cases where full spontaneous eruption occurred.
Methods
Panoramic radiographs of 17 patients, 13–16 years of age, were obtained just after orthodontic tr...

... 3 The maxillary midline supernumeraries, maxillary fourth molars, maxillary paramolars, mandibular premolars, maxillary lateral incisors, mandibular fourth molars, and maxillary premolars, are the most frequent supernumerary teeth, listed in order of frequency. 4 A "number" developmental dental anomaly, hyperdontia (also known as supernumerary teeth) is the term used to describe any additional tooth or odontological structure that is not a part of the normal dentition. 5 In permanent dentition, its prevalence ranges from 0.1% to 3.9%, while in primary dentition, it ranges from 0.3 to 1.8%. ...
Teeth that do not emerge into the dental arch within the typical timeframe are referred to as impacted teeth. The third molars, being the last teeth to develop and erupt in the permanent dentition, are the most frequently impacted. They often become impacted either because of an abnormal position during their development, insufficient space in the dental arch, or a combination of both factors. In this case, we present multiple third molars and supernumerary teeth that are abnormally positioned and impacted. The patient was treated by extracting all third molars and associated impacted supernumerary teeth under general anesthesia.

Background
Hypergenetic molars are uncommon in children and adolescents. Furthermore, the presence of multiple eumorphic supernumerary molars (SNMs) in children is sporadic. The author, therefore, reports a nonsyndromic case of multiple supplemental SNMs in a child.
Case description
A ten year old boy primarily complaining of cheek biting was found to have six molars on the maxillary left quadrant. Following investigations and case discussion, four molars and fibroma were surgically removed under general anesthesia.
Discussion
This paper discusses the prevalence and management of SNMs in the pediatric population while documenting the first case of multiple eumorphic SNMs in the mixed dentition.

... [11], [13], [24], [32] A permanent tooth eruption can often be disrupted following traumatic injury to temporary teeth, causing hypoplasia, corono-radicular dilacerations, cessation of root formation or even sequestration of the tooth germ. [15], [21], [27] And finally, idiopathic inclusions, where the failure to erupt several teeth, not ankylosed, occurs without any local, genetic or systemic etiology. [18], [30] ...
Multiple dental inclusions are a relatively rare pathology. They are often part of complex dysmorphoses which require an interrogatory, clinical and radiological examination. The most frequent etiologies of inclusion are local. However, the presence of multiple inclusions can also be correlated with genetic syndromes or metabolic or hormonal pathologies, as well as idiopathic etiologies. There are as many therapeutic approaches as there are forms of inclusions; therapeutic abstention, extraction followed by prosthetic restoration or surgical-orthodontic treatment. Developing a treatment sequence, determining the appropriate anchorage, and biomechanical planning can be a challenge. The aim of our work is to establish an up-to-date state of knowledge regarding the epidemiology, etiological factors and appropriate treatment strategies for multiple dental inclusions.  Â

... [5] Occurrence of supernumerary teeth still remains unclear, but many explanations concerning the etiology of the supernumerary teeth have been proposed such as atavism or reversion (phylogenetic theory), aberrations during embryologic formation, dichotomy theory, dental lamina hyperactivity, and genetic and environmental factors. [6][7][8] Hyperactivity theory is the most commonly accepted. [7,8] It states that supernumerary teeth are result of localized and independent conditional hyperactivity of dental lamina. ...
... [6][7][8] Hyperactivity theory is the most commonly accepted. [7,8] It states that supernumerary teeth are result of localized and independent conditional hyperactivity of dental lamina. [6,7] Based on this theory, eumorphic or supplemental tooth arises from the lingual extension of additional tooth bud whereas proliferation of epithelial remnants of dental lamina gives rise to rudimentary form. ...
Multiple supernumerary teeth are rare developmental anomalies which are often associated with syndromes. Only few examples of nonsyndromic supernumerary teeth have been reported with fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh molar rarest of all. The cause, frequency, complications, and surgical operation of supernumerary teeth are always interesting subjects for study and research. Literature reports increased occurrence of the supernumeraries in the maxilla, but here, a unique and unusual case report of 12-year-old female patient with unilateral multiple impacted supernumerary teeth in the mandible in otherwise healthy individual has been presented. © 2017 Journal of Indian Society of Pedodontics and Preventive Dentistry.

Background: While impaction of tooth is widespread and common, multiple impacted teeth itself is a rare condition and is usually associated with syndromes, metabolic and hormonal disorders. However, in some cases impaction of multiple teeth is not associated with fixed complex of symptoms. Case report: We present a case of a 20 yr old male with clinically missing multiple permanent teeth with retained deciduous teeth. Intraorally, thick band of mucosa was present in the posterior alveolar ridge. Panoramic radiograph revealed total of 24 impacted teeth, eleven in mandible and thirteen in maxilla. Generalized enamel hypoplasia was seen in posterior impacted teeth. The mucosa overlying the impacted teeth had thickened soft tissue outline. Detailed history, clinical examination and chest X-Ray did not reveal any syndrome or metabolic disorder, except for subclinical hypothyroidism. Conclusion: In the index case, all the impacted teeth were of permanent dentition and were bilaterally symmetrical and occurred in the absence of any syndromes, metabolic and hormonal disorders which is a rare occurrence.

Supernumerary molars are relatively rare entities in maxillofacial region which can be classified broadly into
distomolars and paramolars. Usually these occur singly and unilaterally. Occurrence of both paramolar and distomolar
together is a very rare finding. This paper reports an unusual occurrence of combination of developing unerupted
paramolar and distomolar follicles in the maxilla which was an incidental finding in the Orthopantamograph of a 13 year old girl. Patient was asymptomatic, hence was kept under observation and follow up. This paper describes the incidence and prevalence, possible etiological factors, complications, treatment options for supernumerary molars
along with review of literature.
