“…In a study on clinical repercussions of supernumerary canines, almost 70% of supernumerary teeth found were impacted, and half of them also caused the impaction of the permanent canines. Authors suggest that early diagnosis is mandatory to prevent complications and to reduce the treatment need or the complexity of the case [ 51 ]. This agrees with other studies that state that anomalies in the deciduous dentition also determine anomalies in the permanent one [ 36 , 37 ].…”

Supernumerary teeth are dental units that appear in addition to the regular number of teeth. Their most frequent location is the anterior maxilla, especially on the maxillary midline, being called mesiodens, but also paramedian or in the position of a lateral incisor. On the other hand, the permanent canine is one of the most stable teeth regarding the number, with very few cases reported about hypo-or hyperdontia. This article reviews the few data found in the literature about the supernumerary permanent maxillary canine and also presents the case of an 8-year-old female patient with a supplemental permanent canine in the upper left maxilla. The patient was non-syndromic and did not present any other supernumerary teeth in the permanent dentition; she had only one in the temporary dentition. Using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) of the region, we were able to evaluate the position, structure, and shape of the supplemental canine and also to establish a treatment plan. The aim of this paper was to present this extremely rare case of a non-syndromic Romanian adult female patient with a unilateral supplemental permanent maxillary canine, and to include a literature review of the few reported such cases.

“…P-SNCs are normally rare (0.04 -4.17%), [14,47] finding d-SNCs are even rarer. [15,48,49] A majority of SNCs occur in the maxilla unilaterally with supplemental morphology. [14,47,50] The SNCs are associated with a high percentage of mechanical-obstructive pathology such as impaction, delayed eruption, ectopic eruption, root resorption of adjacent teeth, fusion with adjacent teeth, crowding, and cystic lesions.…”

A cocktail of rarities: Case report and a petite review of concomitant hypo-hyperdontia

A teenager with swelling in the left maxillary canine region exhibited an atypical combination of three rare sporadic anomalies of teeth. The clinical and radiographic evaluation revealed an unerupted odontoma, an impacted maxillary left deciduous supernumerary canine, an impacted maxillary left permanent canine, and the bilateral absence of mandibular lateral incisors. The findings led to the diagnosis of a non-syndromic case of concomitant hypohyperdontia. Only a small number of cases of hypo-hyperdontia have agenesis of mandibular lateral incisors and odontomas, but none have deciduous supernumerary canines. The authors thus bring a new combination of hypohyperdontia cases. This case report also discusses the treatment options of hypo-hyperdontia and the consequences of delaying treatment.

“…However, a study reported them to have almost an equal percentage of supplemental and conical shapes [26]. Cortés-Bretón-Brinkmann et al [46] reported that of the 26 supernumeraries in their study, 14 (53.85%) had supplemental morphology and 12 (46.15%) heteromorphic morphology.…”

“…Supernumerary canines are extremely rare. Among 21,615 Spanish patients, 22 with 26 supernumerary canines were diagnosed presenting a prevalence of 0.10% [46]. In a study conducted among 5,200 Turkish patients, only one was diagnosed with a supernumerary canine [26].…”

“…Although there are numerous studies in the literature investigating the characteristics of various types of supernumerary teeth, only a few focus on supernumerary canines. They are detected more often in the maxilla than in the mandible [13,[43][44][45][46] (Fig. 3) and may occur mainly in the form of small conical-shaped teeth [44].…”

Introduction and objective. Hyperdontia is a dental developmental anomaly in which supernumerary teeth exist. These are extra teeth to the normal set of primary or permanent dentitions. This article reviews the current literature on hyperdontia in the permanent dentition. Materials and method. A thorough literature search was carried out using Scopus, PubMed, and Google Scholar databases. Results were reviewed, prioritized, and findings compiled. The key words of the search strategy were: prevalence, case reports, supernumerary, supplemental, distomolars, forth molars, paramolars, parapremolars, mesiodens, and supernumerary lateral incisors. Only articles in English published in peer-reviewed journals were included. Brief description of the state of knowledge. The prevalence of supernumerary teeth varies between and within different populations. They may cause various aesthetic, occlusal, and functional complications and often require an interdisciplinary intervention. Familiarity with such anomalies is essential for the dental practitioner. Recognition and correct identification of the anomaly is important when communicating with other dental team members, especially in the case of a referral to or from another dental office. Moreover, understanding the anomaly is an important factor in determining the course of treatment, if any. Conclusion. It is hoped that this review will provide dental practitioners with an update on the classification, characteristics, and prevalence figures for each type of supernumerary tooth.
