Maxillary central incisor impactions occur infrequently.Their origins include various local causes, such as odontoma, supernumerary teeth, and space loss. Supernumerary and ectopically impacted teeth are asymptomatic and found during routine clinical or radiological examinations. The surgical exposure and orthodontic traction of impacted right central incisor after removal of odontomas is presented in this report.

A supernumerary tooth is an entity in addition to the normal series of teeth that, although rare, can be fused to a tooth, whether deciduous or permanent. Diagnosis and management in cases involving supernumerary teeth in the anterior region of the maxilla are often challenging. The clinical examination associated with the radiographic examination is decisive for the diagnosis and planning of cases. This article describes a case of unilateral fusion of a supernumerary tooth to a permanent upper lateral incisor, in which clinical and radiographic diagnosis was essential for a conservative approach.

Supernumerary teeth may have all characteristics of normal teeth (dens supernumeratus) or, more frequently, appear as rudimentary remains of the tooth bud (dens accessories). Such teeth may cause various complications and the most frequent are orthodontic anomalies and follicular cysts. Among all supernumerary teeth, the most frequent is mesiodens. It may be of different shape, but most often is conical. Untimely diagnosed and treated mesiodens may, in older age, result in complications and compromise prosthodontic rehabilitation. The aim of this study was to present a case where untimely treatment (diagnostics and extraction) of a mesiodens resulted in the formation of a follicular cyst and a partial resorption of the root of an adjacent tooth (central incisor), which had to be extracted. The patient sought a prosthodontic treatment. However, a hazelnut-size tumor was found in the upper anterior region. Clinical and X-ray examination implied the presence of a follicular cyst around a supernumerary tooth, which was situated between upper central incisors. Cystical sac was removed in a usual manner along with the extraction of the impacted mesiodens. Unfortunately, the upper central left incisor had to be extracted as well due to a progressed root resorption.

Introduction. Dental impaction represents the group of isolated dental anomalies characterized by retention of a tooth with a fully formed root in the jaw bone, after the eruption period has passed. This anomaly may affect deciduous teeth, permanent or supernumerary teeth causing aesthetic and / or functional disorders. Case report. The case presents a clinical situation of a girl who presented two maxillary teeth impacted (a central incisor and a cuspid) who underwent surgical exposure and orthodontic treatment for their arch alignments. Conclusions. Impacted teeth may produce dental malpositions or root resorption of the adjacent teeth, cysts or chronic local infections, which carry out a surgical orthodontic treatment, complex and for a long term, depending on the clinical situation existing.

AbstractSupernumerary teeth in the upper third molar region are relatively common but cases in the lower jaw are rare. In his survey of supernumerary teeth Stafne (1932) saw 131 upper but only 10 lower fourth molars. The following is a report of a single supernumerary tooth in the lower third molar region.

Clinically, supernumerary teeth are able to cause different local disorders and the most common one is impaction of maxillary incisors. Impacted maxillary incisors substantially affect esthetics, function, and self‑esteem of patients. Impaction of maxillary permanent incisor is a rare clinical entity in dental practice. Although impaction of a permanent tooth is rarely diagnosed during the mixed dentition period, an impacted central incisor is usually diagnosed accurately when there is delay in the eruption of tooth. Multiple treatment options are available for impacted incisors. Surgical-orthodontic treatment is one of the alternative option for the correction. Early diagnosis and management of supernumer¬ary teeth is important to prevent the need for more complex surgical and orthodontic treatment. Here, we present a report of two cases of impacted maxillary incisors and its management
