Molecular genetics of supernumerary tooth formation [PDF]
AbstractDespite advances in the knowledge of tooth morphogenesis and differentiation, relatively little is known about the aetiology and molecular mechanisms underlying supernumerary tooth formation. A small number of supernumerary teeth may be a common developmental dental anomaly, while multiple supernumerary teeth usually have a genetic component ...

Supernumerary nasal tooth [PDF]
AbstractA tooth presenting in the nasal cavity is an unusual phenomenon. Supernumerary teeth usually occur in the upper incisor area. Other locations may be the maxillary third molar and the mandibular bicuspid areas. Nasal teeth are a rare form of supernumerary teeth. They may be asymptomatic or may present with nasal obstruction and infection.

Supernumerary tooth in the nasal cavity
Intranasal ectopic dentition is a rare clinical entity. The presence of teeth has been reported in ovaries, testes, anterior mediastinum and presacral regions. In the maxillofacial region, teeth have been found in maxillary sinus, mandibular condyle, coronoid process, chin, nose and even orbit.

Ectopic premolar tooth in the sigmoid notch [PDF]
Impaction of a mandibular premolar is relatively uncommon. Ectopic placement is more unusual and there has been no discussion in the literature of an ectopic mandibular premolar in the coronoid process. In this case report, we present an impacted ectopic

An evaluation of mesiodentes: A retrospective study with cone-beam computed tomography [PDF]
Background: The mesiodens, located in the palatal midline between the two maxillary central incisors, is the most common type of supernumerary tooth. The aim of this study was to evaluate the distribution of mesiodentes according to shape, position, and ...

Supernumerary Tooth in the Nasal Cavity [PDF]
Intranasal ectopic dentition is a rare clinical entity. The presence of teeth has been reported in ovaries, testes, anterior mediastinum, and pre-sacral regions. In the maxillofacial region, teeth have been found in maxillary sinus, mandibular condyle, coronoid process, chin, nose, and even orbit.

Algorithm for Treatment of Supernumerary Nasal Tooth
Abstract The presence of a tooth in the nasal cavity is a rare condition. There is an even more rare association, which is the presence with the mineral's deposition and formation of rhinoliths. This report shows a case of rare nasal tooth associated with rhinolithiasis and describes its surgical treatment based on an algorithm.

Intranasal supernumerary tooth in a child: a case report [PDF]
Background. Ectopic eruption of supernumerary teeth in the nasal cavity is extremely rare, and most cases usually involve the maxillary sinus or are accompanied by dental cysts. It is usually discovered during adulthood. Case. A 5-year-old patient presented with an intranasal mass and intermittent nasal bleeding that lasted for 1 year.
