Abstract
Supernumerary teeth and odontomas are relatively common in clinical practice. However, the occurrence of three or more supernumerary teeth in a single patient is rare in healthy individuals, and there have been very few reports of coexistence with odontoma.
In the present study, we report a case of multiple supernumerary teeth in the bilateral maxillae with odontoma.
The patient was a 28-year-old male. He was referred to our department for the extraction of multiple embedded teeth. Imaging examination revealed one tooth in the right maxillary wisdom tooth area, two teeth in the left maxillary wisdom tooth area, and one tooth in the right maxillary canine area, as well as odontoma-like opacities.
Based on the clinical diagnoses of multiple supernumerary teeth and odontoma, the patient underwent extraction of the bilateral maxillary and maxillary impacted wisdom teeth, right maxillary impacted canine tooth, and excess impacted tooth, and removal of the odontoma under general anesthesia.
The postoperative course was good, and the patient continues to be followed up.
