Dentes supranumerários múltiplos em paciente não sindrômica: relato de caso clínico

Abstract

Any tooth that exceeds the number of teeth established in the deciduous and permanent dentition is considered a supernumerary. Classified as developmental disorders of congenital tooth numbers, it is a condition treated with removal by means of extractions in most cases. This paper aims to present a clinical case report of a female patient attended at the Federal University of Uberlândia, surgical removal of multiple supernumerary teeth located in the maxilla and mandible, both anterior and posterior. Extractions were scheduled to be performed in only two sessions, in an outpatient setting, and no patient hospitalization was required. The early diagnosis and appropriate treatment of this anomaly is fundamental, as it allows the prevention of complications such as: dental resorption, malocclusion, alteration in eruption and positioning of teeth.
