“…(2008) reported the case of homozygosity-mapping to identify a homozygous region with different alleles at chromosome 16q 12.2, located at the marker D16S415, which likely harbors the gene underlying this anomaly. [7] However, in the present case, no familial association was detected, i.e., no other family member had this anomaly or any other type of supernumerary tooth.…”

According to the literature, the prevalence of supernumerary teeth is 1% to 4% of permanent dentitions; and among these, the presence of fifth mandibular incisor — a supernumerary eumorphic tooth — has rarely been described in literature, and its association with localized aggressive periodontitis is an even more rare entity. This paper reports a very rare case of unusual association of supernumerary eumorphic fifth mandibular incisor with aggressive periodontitis in a Muslim individual, so that these findings generate curiosity and inspire others to carry out further studies and investigations.
