Eight supernumerary teeth in a non-syndromic patient: A case report (original) (raw)

Non-Syndromic Multiple Supernumerary Teeth (Hyperdontia) - A Case Report with 7 Supernumerary Teeth

This case describes a 30-year old male Yemeni patient who presented with the complaint of pain in the upper right premolar area and frequent lip and tongue biting on the right side. Intraoral examination revealed supernumerary fully erupted premolar palatally causing caries on the first premolar in the arch which was the cause of the chief complaint. Further clinical examination revealed two supernumeraries fully erupted palatally premolars on the left side of the maxillary arch with a supernumerary mesiodense between the upper central incisors which erupted palatally and the right lateral incisor was displaced palatally opposite the left central incisor. It was interesting to find another 3 supernumerary premolars in the lower jaw located lingually opposite the mandibular premolars. Patient was in a good health and there was no sign or symptoms of any associated medical condition. Extraction of the cause of the pain was done and patient was given appointment for further orthodontic consultation, but he lost follow up.

Multiple hyperodontia: Report of a case with 17 supernumerary teeth with non syndromic association

Supernumerary teeth or hyperodontia is an infrequent developmental alteration that appears in any area of the dental arches and can affect any dental organ. Multiple hyperodontia can be associated with several syndromes such as Gardner's, cleidocranial dysplasia, tricho-rhino phalangic syndrome or in patients with cleft lip and palate. However, it can be present in patients without any systemic pathology. The presence of supernumerary teeth is associated with different alterations in neighboring teeth, being the most common: over retained teeth or delayed eruption, ectopic eruption, dental malposition, occlusal problems, diastemas and rotated neighboring teeth, among a series of associated pathologies. The routine use of radiographic images during examination is a valuable tool that helps make the early diagnosis of these types of abnormalities. Keeping in mind that there are different treatment options, the therapeutic modalities increase. A case of a 20 year old female patient with multiple supernumerary teeth with non syndromic association is presented. The teeth were located in the maxilla and the mandible causing a severe malocclusion.

Non-syndromic multiple supernumerary teeth in a family unit with a normal karyotype: case report

International Journal of Medical Sciences, 2000

Introduction. Hyperdontia is an odontostomatologic anomaly characterized by an excess in tooth number. It seems to occur more often in patients with hereditary factors concerning this anomaly: this case represents a rare form of hyperdontia, with bilateral multiple supernumerary teeth, with evident penetrance of the phenotype in the family unit engaged in the present study. The karyotype determination excludes a pathogenesis on chromosomal basis. Case report. A 30 years old patient came to our observation with five impacted teeth (1.8, 2.8, 3.8, 4.7 and 4.8), as well as with the presence of an impacted supernumerary tooth (distomolar 4.9). The patient was suggested to allow us to perform a radiologic screening to his two sisters aged 17 and 13 years. The X-ray photography showed that the elder sister had nine impacted teeth; these were 1.

Report of a case with 19 supernumerary teeth in a non-syndromic patient

Indian journal of dentistry, 2014

Supernumerary teeth occur frequently in human dentition, but presence of multiple supernumerary teeth in patients without any associated syndrome or systemic disorder is a rare phenomenon. Presence of supernumerary teeth in itself is not a problem and may not require removal in all cases but in certain conditions, they may be associated with several clinical complications and require removal. Here, we present a 14 year old female who complained of non emergence of permanent teeth. Orthopantomogram initially showed presence of fifteen impacted supernumerary teeth distributed in all quadrants, but later, cone-beam computed tomography further revealed four additional teeth, totaling to nineteen supernumerary teeth. Consultation with concerned specialists ruled out any syndromes or systemic disorders which led us to the diagnosis of "non-syndromic multiple supernumerary teeth" and this probably is the highest number of supernumerary teeth reported in a single non-syndromic pat...

Supernumerary Teeth: Case Report

The hyperdontia is a term that refers to the development of supernumerary teeth, which are described as excess teeth, that is, over the physiological amount of the dental arches. Therefore, the supernumerary teeth are considered a development anomaly that may several etiological factors [1]. The cause is uncertain, but, a large number of hypotheses have been proposed and sufficient material has been accumulated to prove the origin of these extra teeth. Between these theories, the most widely accepted is that the hyperactivity of the dental lamina in the initiation stage, resulting in a new tooth. Another hypothesis indicates to a syndromic association. Complications may also arise due to the presence of these teeth, such as late tooth eruption and the development of odontogenic cysts [2]. The objective of this article is to emphasize a clinical case about supernumerary teeth. The knowledge by the dental-surgeons about supernumerary dentition is of fundamental importance to provide a correct and timely diagnosis for treatment.

Multiple supernumerary teeth in a non-syndromic patient: A case report

Advances in oral and maxillofacial surgery, 2023

Supernumerary teeth (ST) are uncommon alterations of development that may appear in either of the dental arches and that are frequently associated with syndromes such as cleidocranial dysplasia and Gardner syndrome. Multiple ST in individuals with no other disease or syndrome are very rare. In view of this situation, correct diagnosis, treatment and evaluation of ST with the use of appropriate imaging techniques are highly important. This case report presents radiographic images of a nonsyndromic 12-year-old female patient who presented with 14 supernumerary teeth and was treated under general anesthesia, with the extraction of all ST in a single surgical intervention. During the postoperative period, the patient did not complain of pain nor did she present any signs or symptoms of infection. During late follow-up period, due to difficulty in traction of the maxillary right canine and mandibular left first premolar towards the dental arch, it was necessary to extract these teeth under local anesthesia. Radiographic examination 3 years after surgery revealed the absence of ST and of diseases related to the existence of these teeth.

Sequential supernumerary teeth development in a non-syndromic patient; report of a rare case

Journal of dentistry (Tehran, Iran), 2013

Isolated impacted supernumerary teeth are quite rare, but they can be seen associated with several syndromes such as cleidocranial dysostosis or Gardner's syndrome. This article aims to discuss a case of sequential formation of supernumerary teeth with no other associated disease or syndrome. A 17-year-old Iranian male with 8 impacted supernumerary teeth was referred to the department of pediatric dental clinic at Shahid Beheshti Medical University in Tehran with a history of several impacted unerupted teeth. Repeated and periodical clinical and radiographic examinations revealed newly formed teeth buds in unusual dental ages. All extra teeth were associated with generalized enamel hypoplasia to some degree on their relative permanent adjacent teeth. The patient did not have any record of a systemic disease or any syndromic condition to relate his dental problem to. This rare condition involved repeated and continued formation of extra teeth out of the normal numbers and dental ...

Supernumerary teeth: Report of four unusual cases

Contemporary Clinical Dentistry, 2012

Supernumerary tooth denotes duplication of tooth in the normal series. It is a developmental anomaly and has been argued to arise from multiple etiologies. These teeth may remain embedded in the alveolar bone or can erupt into the oral cavity. The supernumerary tooth might cause esthetic and/or functional problems, especially if it is situated in the maxillary anterior region. Complications reported were delayed or prevented eruption of succedaneous teeth, displacement or rotation, crowding of the affected region, abnormal diastema, dilacerations, cystic formation, and sometime eruption into the nasal cavity. In this case report, four unusual cases of supernumerary teeth that resulted in varying degrees of disturbances in permanent dentition are presented. Conservative surgical intervention and light orthodontic forces were used to bring the teeth into normal position with minimal disturbance to the surrounding oral structures.
