A case of bilateral horizontal impaction of the mandibular second molars is presented. A 28-year-old woman with pain of the right mandibular first molar visited our dental office.
X-ray examination revealed bilateral impaction of the mandibular second molars, and the mandibular third molars intussuscepted on the mandibular second molars.
In the absence of systemic abnormality, facial trauma, and maldevelopment of the jaw, impaction seemed to have been closely associated with some unknown local factor.
