Abstract :
In the majority of the cases with typical supernumerary tooth, mesiodens are the most widespread finding and may give rise to a variety of clinical symptoms, including displacement and obstruction, in the emergence and alignment of the adjoining teeth. The best time to remove the mesiodens is still up for debate, but it is typically suggested if there are any clinical complications or aesthetic issues present. While some authors advise awaited intervention following the full root development of the nearby teeth, others advise a rapid approach. In the present case report, one such patient's esthetics and quality of life have been successfully improved.
