Mandibular mesiodens and maxillary mid-palatal mesiodens: Rare occurrences

Abstract

Mesiodens is the most common supernumerary teeth located mesial to both centrals; appearing peg shaped in a normal or inverted position. Their occurrence in the mandibular region is very rare and in the maxilla, most commonly they occur in the premaxillary region. Here we present a case of mandibular mesiodens and a case of midpalatal mesiodens in a seven year old.
