The simultaneous presence of hypodontia and hyperdontia is a rare condition in general population posing a diagnostic dilemma to dental practitioners. Its etiology is still not exactly known. It can result in several clinical problems which may require a multidisciplinary approach and long-term dental care. The growing knowledge about this condition emphasizes that concomitant anomalies should be excluded when hypodontia or hyperdontia is diagnosed. Presented here is an unusual case of bimaxillary concomitant hypodontia and multiple supernumerary teeth with Talon cusps as an associated dental anomaly. |
