Aim: The aims of this report are to present a case of nonsyndromic multiple supernumerary teeth and a discussion of the value of three-dimensional computerized tomography (3D CT) for precise radiographic imaging of the anomaly.

Background: Multiple supernumerary teeth without any associated syndromes are very rare. Exact radiographic presentations with an associated diagnosis of nonsyndromic multiple supernumerary teeth have not been well published.

Report: A young Chinese female patient presented with asymmetrical nonsyndromic multiple supernumerary teeth in the premolar and molar regions of her mouth. A 3D CT was used to evaluate the exact location and orientation of these teeth and to guide the treatment strategy.

Summary: The use of 3D CT for the evaluation of supernumerary teeth proved to be very useful in determining their size, location, and state of development, as well as their impact on adjacent teeth and tissues in a 15-year-old patient.

Clinical Significance: The 3D CT is a very useful radiological tool to assess nonsyndromic multiple supernumerary teeth.

BACKGROUND Cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) is a rare (1: 1 000 000) autosomal dominant congenital skeletal dysplasia characterized by widely patent calvarial sutures, clavicular hypoplasia, supernumerary teeth, and short stature. Only a minority of the cases are diagnosed early after birth. We present another case of proven CCD presenting with typical neonatal phenotype to promote awareness of this rare disorder.

Objectives: To record the prevalence of dental anomalies in children visiting King Saud Dental Hospital, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Materials And Methods: This cross-sectional study involved radiographic examination of children aged 6 to 14 years who visited King Saud Dental Hospital, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in the past five years. Four dental interns were trained in three consecutive sessions by a pediatric dentist and evaluated the orthopantomograms of the children.

The human tooth's morphology, which includes variations in cusp numbers and patterns, is of tremendous interest to anthropologists, morphologists, and dentists. Cusp 6 is an additional cusp that is very seldom encountered in primary or permanent mandibular molars, especially first molars. A supernumerary cusp located lingual to the distobuccal cusp at the crown's distal border is cusp 6.

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics of deciduous fused teeth and their inherited permanent-tooth performance type by using panoramic radiographs.

Methods: A total of 14 404 panoramic radiographs of 3- to 6-year-old children with deciduous dentition were collected from January 2023 to July 2024. The incidence of deciduous fused teeth was observed, and the abnormality of permanent teeth was recorded.

Aim And Background: Angioedema is a nonpruritic swelling that typically affects the skin, mucous membranes of the face, and perioral soft tissues. It can be life-threatening, but it is usually not and can be treated conservatively unless the airway is compromised. This paper seeks to illuminate a rare case of hereditary angioedema (HAE) onset following dental procedures in a 9-year-old Indian boy.
