Kim YR, Lee YM, Huh KH, Yi WJ, Heo MS, Lee SS, Kim JE. Clinical and radiological features of malformed mesiodens in the nasopalatine canal: an observational study. Dentomaxillofac Radiol 2024; 53:189-195. [PMID: 38268503 PMCID: PMC11003663 DOI: 10.1093/dmfr/twae003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2023] [Revised: 12/18/2023] [Accepted: 01/17/2024] [Indexed: 01/26/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study is to investigate the morphological changes that occur when mesiodens is located within the nasopalatine canal, as well as clinical characteristics. METHODS Clinical records and CT images of patients who had mesiodens in the nasopalatine canal were retrospectively analysed. In addition to demographic information, clinical symptoms and complications associated with extraction of mesiodens were recorded. Using CT images, number, location, size, and tooth morphology were evaluated. RESULTS This study included 32 patients and 38 mesiodens within the nasopalatine canal. Supernumerary teeth exhibited a characteristic feature of thin and elongated shape in the canal (narrow width and elongation were observed in 96.6% and 53.3% of the patients, respectively). Fusion was found in 4 patients and dilaceration in 12. A complication occurred in 2 patients, which was tooth remnant, not a neurologic complication. Only 5 mesiodens could be detected in the nasopalatine canal on panoramic images. CONCLUSIONS Morphological abnormalities in mesiodens within the nasopalatine canal were frequently detected, and these could be effectively diagnosed through 3D imaging analysis.

Prevalence of Orthodontic Malocclusions in Healthy Children and Adolescents: A Systematic Review. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:ijerph19127446. [PMID: 35742703 PMCID: PMC9223594 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph19127446] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/01/2022] [Revised: 06/09/2022] [Accepted: 06/14/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022]
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to systematically review the literature regarding the prevalence of malocclusion and different orthodontic features in children and adolescents. Methods: The digital databases PubMed, Cochrane, Embase, Open Grey, and Web of Science were searched from inception to November 2021. Epidemiological studies, randomized controlled trials, clinical trials, and comparative studies involving subjects ≤ 18 years old and focusing on the prevalence of malocclusion and different orthodontic features were selected. Articles written in English, Dutch, French, German, Spanish, and Portuguese were included. Three authors independently assessed the eligibility, extracted the data from, and ascertained the quality of the studies. Since all of the included articles were non-randomized, the MINORS tool was used to score the risk of bias. Results: The initial electronic database search identified a total of 6775 articles. After the removal of duplicates, 4646 articles were screened using the title and abstract. A total of 415 full-text articles were assessed, and 123 articles were finally included for qualitative analysis. The range of prevalence of Angle Class I, Class II, and Class III malocclusion was very large, with a mean prevalence of 51.9% (SD 20.7), 23.8% (SD 14.6), and 6.5% (SD 6.5), respectively. As for the prevalence of overjet, reversed overjet, overbite, and open bite, no means were calculated due to the large variation in the definitions, measurements, methodologies, and cut-off points among the studies. The prevalence of anterior crossbite, posterior crossbite, and crossbite with functional shift were 7.8% (SD 6.5), 9.0% (SD 7.34), and 12.2% (SD 7.8), respectively. The prevalence of hypodontia and hyperdontia were reported to be 6.8% (SD 4.2) and 1.8% (SD 1.3), respectively. For impacted teeth, ectopic eruption, and transposition, means of 4.9% (SD 3.7), 5.4% (SD 3.8), and 0.5% (SD 0.5) were found, respectively. Conclusions: There is an urgent need to clearly define orthodontic features and malocclusion traits as well as to reach consensus on the protocols used to quantify them. The large variety in methodological approaches found in the literature makes the data regarding prevalence of malocclusion unreliable.

Abstract
Summary
Background/Aim: The study aimed to evaluate the prevalence and distribution of congenital dental number anomalies in the permanent dentition among a group of Turkish children in the Inner Aegean Region of Turkey.
Material and Methods: A total of 5377 patients aged 7–9 who visited our clinic for the first time between September 2018 and September 2019 were investigated. The children were examined for tooth agenesis and supernumerary teeth using panoramic radiographs taken for various reasons and clinical records reviewed. Dental number anomalies were evaluated according to gender and localization. Descriptive and comparative statistical analyses were performed using the SPSS package software program Version 23.
Results: For the study, the data of 1987 patients (947 female, 1040 male) were examined. The tooth agenesis was found in 109 patients (5.5%), the supernumerary teeth were found in 24 patients (1.2%). The prevalence of tooth agenesis was 5% in males, 6% in females. There was no statistical difference between genders (p>0.05). The distribution of tooth agenesis according to jaws and sides by gender was not statistically different (p>0.05). The most commonly missing teeth were mandibular left second premolar (37.6% of patients) and mandibular right second premolar (33% of patients). According to types of teeth and gender, molar tooth agenesis was seen more common in females than males (p<0.05), there was no significant difference in other types of teeth by gender. The prevalence of supernumerary teeth were 1.9% in males, 0.4% in females and the difference between genders was found to be statistically significant (p<0.05). All the supernumerary teeth were located in the anterior maxilla, and half of them were mesiodens.
Conclusions: Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment choice are very important managing complications associated with congenital dental number anomalies and for differential diagnosis of characteristic syndromes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL/P) is congenital deformity associated with hyperdontia. OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence and characteristics of supernumerary teeth in patients with CL/P. DESIGN Retrospective descriptive and correlation clinical study. PATIENTS One hundred thirteen children with cleft (age ranged 9.3-19.2; 67 males and 46 females) treated in Clinic of Congenital Facial Deformities Medical University of Lublin were included in the study. METHODS Records evaluation was conducted regarding age, gender, cleft type (Q36, Q37-International Classification of Diseases 10th revision), cleft side, and incidence of supernumeraries. In all supernumerary teeth, size, shape, and developmental degree were analyzed and correlation between the incidence of hyperdontia with different variables was checked. Correlations were detected using chi-square and the Yates correction. RESULTS The majority of the examined group were males-59.29% with Q37 (67.26%) and the cleft on the left side (62.83%). Hyperdontia was noted in 26.55%. Only upper lateral incisors were affected. They usually had atypical shape (56.67%), reduced size (83.33%), and delayed development (56.67%). CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of supernumerary permanent teeth in patients with cleft was higher than in the general population. Anomaly was more frequent in male patients and occurred mainly on the cleft side. The severity of the cleft did not influenced the frequency of supernumerary teeth, their shape, size, and developmental degree. Supernumerary teeth were characterized by reduced crown size, abnormal structure, incorrect inclination, and delayed development phase.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to characterize dental anomalies. The pretreatment records (photographs and radiographs) of 2897 patients (41.4% males and 58.6% females) were utilized to detect dental anomalies. The dental anomalies studied were related to number, size and shape, position, and eruption. A Chi-square test was carried out to detect associations between dental anomalies, jaw, and sex. A total of 1041 (36%) of the subjects manifested at least one dental anomaly. The prevalence of all dental anomalies was jaw-dependent and greater in the maxilla, except for submerged and transmigrated teeth. The most frequently missing teeth were the maxillary lateral incisor (62.3%) and the mandibular second premolars (60.6%). The most frequent supernumerary teeth were the incisors in the maxilla (97%) and the first premolars in the mandible (43%). Dental anomalies are more frequent in the maxilla and mainly involve the anterior teeth; in the mandible, however, it is the posterior teeth. These differences can be attributed to the evolutionary history of the jaws and their diverse development patterns.

[PMID: 33688347 PMCID: PMC7925020 DOI: 10.1155/2021/6669436] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2020] [Revised: 01/08/2021] [Accepted: 02/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Supernumerary tooth is defined as any extra tooth or odontogenic structure that is formed on normal dentition. Supernumerary teeth cause such problems as deficiency in tooth growth, ectopic growth, displacement, crowding, diastema, odontogenic cyst formation, decay of the adjacent tooth, malocclusion, and esthetic problems. This study was conducted aiming at determining epidemiology of supernumerary teeth in Ardabil city in 2020. Materials & Methods. In this retrospective descriptive analytical study, 5000 panoramic radiographs of patients referring to Rad and Baser Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology Centers were selected through multistage sampling method during 2015-2020. The data were collected by checklist and analyzed with using SPSS-21 and chi-squared, Fisher, and one-way ANOVA tests with a significance level less than 5%. Results The prevalence of supernumerary teeth was estimated as 1.06% (n = 53), and no significant difference between the males and females was seen. Most supernumerary teeth were found in the distomolar (44.1%) and parapremolar (29.4%) locations. The majority of supernumerary teeth were present in the maxilla (73.5%) and were impacted (77.9%) and unilateral (71.7%). The number of supernumerary teeth was 68 cases and majority of patients (86.8%) had one supernumerary tooth. Conclusion Supernumerary tooth in this study had a high prevalence compared to similar studies, and unlike most previous studies, the most common type of supernumerary tooth was distomolar. Early diagnosis and proper medical planning are essential for managing supernumerary teeth.

Abstract
Abstract
Abnormalities in the number of teeth are conditions that occur predominantly in childhood. Therefore, monitoring the prevalence and early diagnosis is very important for the timely and appropriate therapeutic approach. The aim of the study was to investigate the incidence of supernumerary teeth in patients from the city of Plovdiv.
Methods and equipment: 1,000 dental patients were studied. Data were collected from patients seeking medical attention at the Faculty of Dental Medicine in Plovdiv. We used clinical, X-ray and statistical methods for investigation.
Results: A 1.1% prevalence of supernumerary teeth (ST) was observed in the studied patients. A statistically significant difference was found between the presence of ST in the permanent and mixed dentition, with a 3% relative proportion of ST in the mixed and 0.62% in the permanent dentition (p < 0.05). The relative proportion of ST in the maxilla was 90.9%, and in the mandible – 9.1%. A statistically significant difference (p < 0.05) was found in the distribution of ST by jaws. In our study, a higher frequency of mesiodens and distomolar (1.08% and 0.22%, respectively) was found in males, and a decreasing relative proportion from the midline to distally in females (mesiodens – 0.56%, paramolar – 0.19%, distomolar – 0.19%).
Conclusion: Supernumerary teeth are a relatively rare dental abnormality in the Bulgarian population. Its distribution by sex and morphology corresponds to the prevalence in Caucasians and populations of southern countries.

Abstract
Purpose The aim of the present study is to determine the prevelance and clinical status of mesiodens in a group of non-syndromic Turkish children, with an analysis of the associated clinical-eruptive complications. Materials and Methods This study sample consists of 58142 pediatric patients'. Standard equipment and films were used in the suspected patients. The examination of all radiographs was performed under standard conditions by two pediatric dentists with over 10 years experience. Age, gender, number of mesiodens, morphology and clinical status were recorded in forms. Results A total of 83 mesiodentes were diagnosed in 59 children with ages ranging from 6-14 years. The prevelance of mesiodens was estimated as 0.1%. Males were more frequently affected than females in the ratio of 2.3:1. Of the 83 mesiodentes, 48.2% were conical, 31.3% were tuberculate and 20.5% were incisor like, 22.9% were inverted, and 68.7% were fully impacted. The number of mesiodens was one in 36 cases (61.0%), two in 22 cases (37.3%) and three in one case (1.7%). The mean age at the time of diagnosis of the mesiodens was 9.5 years. The main complication associated with the mesiodens was displacement or rotation of the permanent teeth (73.3%). Conclusion This study presents 0.1% prevelance of mesiodens in a group of Turkish children sample. The majority of the mesiodentes were unilateral located in the premaxillary region, were conical shaped, and remained unerupted. The mean age at the time of diagnosis of the mesiodens in this study was 9.5 years, with this period being later than the eruption time of the maxillary central incisor.

Abstract
In the present study, we sought to: (a) analyze the p53 gene status in dentigerous cysts (DC) associated with supernumerary teeth (ST) in a pair of siblings with ST, of whom one developed a DC; and (b) conduct a narrative review of the literature on ST associated with DC. Blood samples were obtained, and the isolated DNA was used to amplify exons 4-8 of the p53 gene using specific primers, and subsequently sequenced. No mutations were identified in the coding regions of the p53 gene. A review of the literature revealed a prevalence of DC associated with ST to be as high as 13.6%, and that 83% of the case reports performed enucleation of DC and removal of ST. Dentigerous cysts associated with ST in one sibling demonstrated that variations in phenotypes exist, and the absence of mutations cannot eliminate the potential influence of genetic risk factors.

Abstract
Hyperdontia/additional teeth are the commonly used synonyms for supernumerary tooth/teeth (ST). They occur due to the disturbances during the initiation stage of tooth development. They can be noticed in any region of oral cavity and may be single, double, or multiple; unilateral or bilateral; erupted or unerupted. This report presents a case of impacted single ST in the maxillary premolar region in a 14-year-old boy. Usually, ST are extracted, but there are some conditions where ST could be used beneficially. The present case is an example where ST played a beneficial role.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few researchers have investigated the relationship between supernumerary teeth (ST) and impacted incisors. The authors investigated the relationship between ST and impacted incisors in the maxillary anterior area in the mixed dentition. METHODS Using cone-beam computed tomography, the authors diagnosed 417 ST among 294 patients (age range, 6-12 years; 220 boys and 74 girls). The number, morphology, growth orientation, and position of ST were recorded along with the presence of impacted incisors. RESULTS The authors reported that 23.1% of patients having ST (n = 68; mean [standard deviation] age 8.5 [1.6] years) also had impacted incisors. Morphology (molariform and odontomelike), growth orientation (normal and no orientation), and position (coronal) of the ST were significantly associated with impacted incisors (P < .05 for all). An increase of 1 year in age was associated with a decreased risk of having ST accompanied by impacted incisors (odds ratio, 0.76; 95% confidence interval, 0.63 to 0.92). An increase of 1 ST more than doubled the risk of having an impacted incisor (odds ratio, 2.39; 95% confidence interval, 1.44 to 3.96). CONCLUSIONS In this population, the number, morphology, growth orientation, and position of ST as well as the patient's age were associated with impacted incisors in the maxillary anterior area during the mixed dentition. PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS The presence and morphology of ST should alert the clinician to the increased likelihood of having impacted incisors and the need for early diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

Abstract
Background To analyze the prevalence and associations between dental anomalies detectable on panoramic radiographs in a sample of non-orthodontic growing subjects. Methods For this cross-sectional study, digital panoramic radiographs of 5005 subjects were initially screened from a single radiographic center in Rome. Inclusion criteria were: subjects who were aged 8–12 years, Caucasian, and had good diagnostic quality radiographs. Syndromic subjects, those with craniofacial malformation, or orthodontic patients were excluded and this led to a sample of 4706 subjects [mean (SD) age = 9.6 (1.2) years, 2366 males and 2340 females]. Sample was subsequently divided into four subgroups (8, 9, 10, and 11–12 year-old groups). Two operators examined panoramic radiographs to observe the presence of common dental anomalies. The prevalence and associations between dental anomalies were also investigated. Results The overall prevalence of dental anomalies was 20.9%. Approximately, 17.9% showed only one anomaly, 2.7% two anomalies, while only 0.3% had more than two anomalies. The most frequent anomalies were the displacement of maxillary canine (7.5%), hypodontia (7.1%), impacted teeth (3.9%), tooth ankylosis (2.8%), and tooth transposition (1.4%). The lower right second premolar was the most frequent missing teeth; 3.7% had only one tooth agenesis, and 0.08% had six or more missing tooth (Oligodontia). Mesiodens was the most common type of supernumerary tooth (0.66%). Two subjects had taurodontic tooth (0.04%). Tooth transpositions and displacement of maxillary canine were seen in 1.4 and 7.5%, retrospectively (approximately 69 and 58% were in the 8 and 9 year-old groups, retrospectively). Significant associations were detected between the different dental anomalies (P < .05). Conclusions The results of our study revealed significant associations among different dental anomalies and provide further evidences to support common etiological factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE There is no data specific to the Qatari population on the prevalence and distribution of hyperdontia. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and distribution of hyperdontia in the permanent teeth among a group of Qatari sample and to compare the present results with findings from other populations. MATERIALS AND METHODS Records of 1269 Qatari patients (674 females; mean age 11.8 ± 2.3 and 595 males; mean age 11.4 ± 2.2 years) which included panoramic radiographs were examined to identify hyperdontia in the permanent dentition. Supernumerary teeth were assessed for their location, morphology, number, and whether impacted or not. RESULTS The prevalence of hyperdontia was 1.6% (females 0.7% and males 0.9%; P < 0169). The most common type of supernumerary teeth was the supplemental (45.5%), followed by the conical (40%). Of the supplemental teeth, the mandibular incisor was the most prevalent (60%), followed by the premolar (20%). No significant difference in the prevalence was found between the maxilla and mandible. More than half of supernumerary teeth identified were impacted (54.5%). CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of hyperdontia in a group of Qatari population was within the normal range of the majority of published studies in the literature. Although not significant, hyperdontia cases were more prevalent in male patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to determine the prevalence of supernumerary teeth with by evaluating a large group of adult patients in Turkey and to investigate the characteristics of supernumerary teeth with their complications and treatment options. STUDY DESIGN This descriptive and retrospective study was carried out in 7348 adult patients aged over 18 years (3212 females and 4136 males). The characteristics of the supernumerary teeth were noted and the diagnosis was made during clinical and radiographic examination with the help of panaromic, periapical, and occlusal radiography. Information on the demographic variables for each patient, including age and gender, were colleceted. MATERIALS AND METHODS All supernumerary teeth were classfied under several titles such as location, position, morphology, eruption, clinical complications, and treatment protocols. The data obtained were subjected to statistical analysis. Chi-squared test was used to determine differences in distribution of supernumerary teeth when stratified by gender. The statistical significance was established by confidence interval of 95% (P ≤ 0.05). RESULTS 123 (2.14%) affected patients (69 females and 54 males) were observed with a female:male ratio of 1.28:1 (P < 0.05). One hundred and fifty-six supernumerary teeth were detected in all affected patients. CONCLUSION Supernumerary teeth may be observed in adults patients with a similar frequency (2.14%) as in children and young adolescents, and clinicians should take measures and examine all patients carefully even at older ages.

Abstract
Introduction Hypodontia is the most frequent developmental anomaly of the orofacial complex, and its detection in prenatal ultrasound may indicate the presence of congenital malformations, genetic syndromes and chromosomal abnormalities. To date, only a few studies have evaluated the histological relationship of human tooth germs identified by two-dimensional (2D) ultrasonography. In order to analyze whether two-dimensional ultrasonography of tooth germs may be successfully used for identifying genetic syndromes, prenatal ultrasound images of fetal tooth germs obtained from a Portuguese population sample were compared with histological images obtained from fetal autopsies. Methods Observational, descriptive, transversal study. The study protocol followed the ethical principles outlined by the Helsinki Declaration and was approved by the Ethics Committee of the School of Dental Medicine, University of Porto (FMDUP, Porto, Portugal) and of the Centro Hospitalar de Vila Nova de Gaia/Espinho (CHVNG/EPE, Porto, Portugal) as well as by the CGC Genetics Embryofetal Pathology Laboratory. Eighty-five fetuses examined by prenatal ultrasound screening from May 2011 to August 2012 had an indication for autopsy following spontaneous fetal death or medical termination of pregnancy. Of the 85 fetuses, 37 (43.5%) were randomly selected for tooth germ evaluation by routine histopathological analysis. Fetuses who were up to 30 weeks of gestation, and whose histological pieces were not representative of all maxillary tooth germs was excluded. Twenty four fetus between the 13th and 30th weeks of gestation fulfilled the parameters to autopsy. Results Twenty four fetuses were submitted to histological evaluation and were determined the exact number, morphology, and mineralization of their tooth germs. All tooth germs were identifiable with ultrasonography as early as the 13th week of gestation. Of the fetuses autopsied, 41.7% had hypodontia (29.1% maxillary hypodontia and 20.9% mandibular hypodontia). Conclusions This results indicate that prenatal ultrasound is a reliable method for detecting of hypodontia an early gestational ages. Further studies with larger samples are needed to confirm these results.

Abstract
Abstract
Aim
The occurrence of multiple supernumerary teeth is rare and often found in association with syndromes such as cleidocranial dysplasia, Gardner's syndrome or cleft lip and palate. Few examples of non-syndromal multiple supernumerary teeth have been reported. The aim of this multi-centre study was to investigate the prevalence of supernumerary premolar teeth in non-syndromic patients and to investigate the association between the presence of supernumerary premolar teeth and malocclusion type in a Turkish population.
Materials and methods
The clinical records and panoramic radiographs of 10,700 patients (referred to three different university hospitals) were retrospectively examined for the presence of supernumerary premolars. Age, gender, orthodontic malocclusion type, the number of supernumerary premolars (two or more), the distribution, location, position (vertical, horizontal, inverted, mesio-angular), surgical approach, and related complications (pain, cystic changes, root resorption, or eruption disturbance of adjacent teeth) were recorded.
Results
Forty-two cases (13 Class I, 17 Class II, 12 Class III) of multiple mandibular supernumerary premolars in patients without an associated syndrome were detected. A total of 97 (27 Class I, 41 Class II, 29 Class III) supernumerary premolar teeth were found, with a prevalence of 0.39%. No statistical difference was found related to gender, malocclusion type and supernumerary premolars (p > 0.05). The majority of the extra premolars were located in the mandible, which was statistically significant (p < 0.05).
Conclusion
The present study revealed that the prevalence of multiple supernumerary teeth was 0.39%. The most frequently impacted premolars were found in the mandible and more often associated with Class II malocclusions in the examined Turkish population.

Abstract
Congenitally missing teeth (CMT), or as usually called hypodontia, is a highly prevalent and costly dental anomaly. Besides an unfavorable appearance, patients with missing teeth may suffer from malocclusion, periodontal damage, insufficient alveolar bone growth, reduced chewing ability, inarticulate pronunciation and other problems. Treatment might be usually expensive and multidisciplinary. This highly frequent and yet expensive anomaly is of interest to numerous clinical, basic science and public health fields such as orthodontics, pediatric dentistry, prosthodontics, periodontics, maxillofacial surgery, anatomy, anthropology and even the insurance industry. This essay reviews the findings on the etiology, prevalence, risk factors, occurrence patterns, skeletal changes and treatments of congenitally missing teeth. It seems that CMT usually appears in females and in the permanent dentition. It is not conclusive whether it tends to occur more in the maxilla or mandible and also in the anterior versus posterior segments. It can accompany various complications and should be attended by expert teams as soon as possible.

Abstract
The aim of the present work is to analyze all scientific evidence to verify whether similarities supporting a unified explanation for odontomas and supernumerary teeth exist. A literature search was first conducted for epidemiologic studies indexed by PubMed, to verify their worldwide incidence. The analysis of the literature data shows some interesting similarities between odontomas and supernumerary teeth concerning their topographic distribution and pathologic manifestations. There is also some indication of common genetic and immuno-histochemical factors. Although from a nosological point of view, odontomas and supernumeraries are classified as distinct entities, they seem to be the expression of the same pathologic process, either malformative or hamartomatous.

Abstract
Objective: To assess the prevalence of lateral incisor agenesis impacted canines and supernumerary teeth in a young adult male population. Materials and Methods: The panoramic radiographs of 1745 military students (mean age: 18.6 ± 0.52 years) who attended the Center of Aviation Medicine of the Armed Forces of Greece during the period 1997-2011 were initially analyzed for lateral incisor agenesis by two observers. After exclusion of the known orthodontic cases, a subgroup of 1636 examinees (mean age: 18.6 ± 0.44 years) was evaluated for canine impaction and supernumerary teeth. Results: Twenty-eight missing lateral incisors were observed in 22 military students, indicating an incidence of 1.3% in the investigated population. No lateral incisor agenesis was detected in the mandibular arch. A prevalence rate of 0.8% was determined for canine impaction in the sample of young adults. The majority of impacted teeth (86.7%) were diagnosed in the maxillary arch. Thirty-five supernumerary teeth were observed in 24 examinees (prevalence rate: 1.5%). The ratio of supernumerary teeth located in the maxilla versus the mandible was 2.2:1. The most common type of supernumerary tooth was the upper distomolar. Conclusion: The prevalence of lateral incisor agenesis, canine impaction, and supernumerary teeth ranged from 0.8 to 1.5% in the sample of male Greek military students.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence of permanent tooth anomalies in patients attending the graduate orthodontic clinic at the State University of New York at Buffalo. MATERIALS AND METHODS Charts of 496 subjects (310 females and 186 males) met the inclusion criteria for this study. The mean ages were 16 years and 3 months for the combined gender sample that received orthodontic treatment in the graduate orthodontic clinic between 2007 and 2010. Full pretreatment records (intraoral photographs, digital study models, lateral cephalograms and panoramic radiographs) were used for the assessment. Charts were examined for these anomalies: agenesis, supernumerary, impaction and delayed tooth eruption. Subjects were categorized by gender and ethnicity. The percentages of the anomalies were assessed according to type of malocclusion, gender, race, location, tooth class and region in the dental arches. RESULTS Sixty-four subjects (12.9%) had at least one occurrence of delayed eruption and impaction (DEI), followed by 47 subjects (9.5%) who had at least one occurrence of agenesis, and seven (1.4%) had a supernumerary condition. Approximately 80% of the subjects had no dental anomalies. The presence of more than one anomaly was observed in 61 subjects. Twelve subjects (2.4%) had both agenesis and DEI. Agenesis tended to be more common in class II malocclusions (p=0.012). CONCLUSION The prevalence of permanent tooth anomalies was (20.4%). The percentage occurrence of DEI was the highest (12.9%) followed by dental agenesis (9.5%) and supernumerary teeth (1.4%) in the orthodontic patients at the State University of New York at Buffalo.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the characteristics and distribution of premaxillary supernumerary teeth affecting primary and mixed dentitions in Indian children. METHODS This retrospective analysis included 11 200 children, aged 3-12 years, who attended a pediatric dental clinic for dental care during the period 2007-2010. The children were divided into group I (aged 3-6 years) and group II (aged 7-12 years), and data regarding maxillary anterior supernumerary teeth, diagnosed both as isolated and/or as unexpected findings during routine clinical and radiological examinations, were gathered. Pearson's χ(2) -test, with a 0.05 level of significance, was used for the analysis. RESULTS The overall prevalence of premaxillary supernumerary teeth in primary and mixed dentitions was 1.9%. Single supernumerary teeth (84.9%) and conical morphology (68.7%) were commonly seen in both groups. The most common sagittal position was palatal (92.3%) among both erupted and impacted maxillary anterior supernumerary teeth. CONCLUSION The prevalence of premaxillary supernumerary teeth in Indian children found in this study was 1.9%, with an overall male to female ratio of 1.7:1. Single supernumerary teeth, conical morphology, and erupted supernumerary teeth were the most commonly seen. Supernumerary teeth associated with clinical complications were relatively low (48%), and axial rotation or displacement of maxillary incisors was the most common sequelae.

Abstract
The incidence of nonsyndromic supernumerary premolars is rare. Supernumerary premolars are likely to undergo pathological changes. The most commonly encountered complications with these teeth are dentigerous cyst and root resorption of the adjacent tooth. This paper is about impacted double fused supernumerary premolars in the right mandiblular body associated with an impacted first premolar in a 17-year-old male. Under local anesthesia, the supernumerary premolars and the impacted permanent first premolar were surgically removed. Early diagnosis followed by an appropriate treatment at the right time will result in favorable prognosis in such cases.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Extra teeth in dentition is termed as 'supernumerary teeth' and is a very well-known dental developmental anomaly. Supernumerary premolars are a rare anomaly in the maxillofacial complex. Its rarity and complex characteristics often makes it difficult to treat. Radiographs play an important role in assessment of both the location and the typing of supernumerary teeth. This article reports the rare case of 'nonsyndromic bilateral maxillary supernumerary premolars' in which the endodontic management of supernumerary premolar tooth is described. In this case the value of cone-beam computerized tomography is also emphasized. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Developmental anomalies can occur in any tooth and supplementary premolars are no exception. The complexity of such teeth has to be considered for planning endodontic treatment to increase the chances of success.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the prevalence, characteristics (malocclusion, location, type) and gender distribution of supernumerary teeth (ST) in an Iranian orthodontic population. MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective study was carried out using radiographs (periapicals, panoramic) and study models of 1751 subjects (870 girls, 881 boys; age range 9-27 years). The Pearson chi-square test was used to determine differences in the distribution of ST when stratified by gender and malocclusion type. RESULTS Fourteen ST were found in 13 patients (six males, seven females), giving a prevalence rate of 0.74%. The prevalence rate of ST was higher in Class III malocclusions (5.2%) and was a rare finding among Class II malocclusions (0.1%). The occurrence rate of ST was higher in maxilla (78.5%) than in mandible (21.5%). The most common type of ST was the conical form (43%). We did not observe any late-developing paramolar or distomolar ST. CONCLUSION The prevalence rate of ST in our study was 0.74% and ST were more common among Class III malocclusions.
