Abstract

Supernumerary teeth are common and can occur throughout the oral cavity. Molariform supernumerary teeth in the maxillary central incisor area have rarely been reported. This article reports the presence of mesiodentes in two siblings, one of whom exhibited an unusual molariform mesiodens. The clinical and radiographic appearance of the anomalies and treatment modalities are discussed.
