Abstract
The Supernumerary teeth are developmental anomaly that can disturb the entire oral cavity functionally and aesthetically. The clinical behavior and radiographic appearance of supernumerary teeth is necessary for prime recognition, early diagnosis and long term treatment planning. Aims to determine the prevalence, clinical features and complications associated with supernumerary teeth; and to evaluate the relationship between different variables. The study involved 77 children aged 6-12 years with 97 supernumerary teeth visited a tertiary care hospital. The data collected includes relevant/demographic information of the subject, number, morphology, location, sagittal position, orientation, root development, eruption status and complications resulted from supernumerary teeth. Thereafter, the relationship between variables was analyzed statistically. The prevalence was 1.76 with a male predominance (2.08:1). Single Supernumerary 57 and double in 20 children were found. Rudimentary type was the most predominant (85.56%) whereas supplemental were 14.43%. Out of 48.45% clinically erupted pre-maxillary supernumerary teeth, 72.16% were palatal and 79.38% vertically oriented. Most common complication was displacement of adjacent teeth in 18 subjects (23.57%) followed by rotation (14.81%), diastema (13.58%), crowding (12.98%), delayed eruption (11.68%), impaction (6.49%), deviated occlusion (5.19%) and alteration in path of eruption of permanent teeth (3.89%). Statistical significant relationships were found between studied variables.
