Abstract:
In clinical settings, abnormalities in dental traits such size, form, quantity, structure, and eruption are frequently seen. The existence of extra teeth in different parts of the dental arch is one example of this oddity. Supernumerary teeth are routinely detected during radiographic assessments, despite the fact that they are often asymptomatic. A woman who was seven years and four months old was diagnosed with a mandibular canine eruption disruption brought on by an extra tooth. In order to bring the canines into occlusion, orthodontic backets were inserted after the additional teeth were pulled when the patient was seventeen years old. In order to promote appropriate permanent tooth eruption, this research emphasizes the significance of a comprehensive strategy for managing excess teeth by prompt extraction and space maintenance.
