Background: Morphological and structural abnormalities are common dental anomalies. Identifying DA and determining their prevalence can play an important role in reducing the risk of surgical intervention and improving occlusion, leading to successful dental treatments. Thus, this study aimed to determine the prevalence of DA using panoramic radiographs (OPG) in Makkah, Saudi Arabia according to gender.

Article Synopsis
- Supernumerary teeth are additional teeth that can appear anywhere in the mouth and may cause swelling; this case highlights a rare instance of one found in the horizontal plate of the palatine bone.
- A 10-year-old boy presented with a bony hard swelling in his palate, which was confirmed via a CT scan to be an impacted supernumerary tooth that was successfully extracted through surgery.
- The case underscores the importance of considering impacted supernumerary teeth in the diagnosis of oral swellings, particularly in the posterior hard palate.

Unlabelled: Preserving deciduous teeth till their natural exfoliation is important to maintain arch length in different dentition periods. Premature loss of primary teeth may cause discrepancy in arch length due to drifting of teeth and supraeruption of the opposite teeth, thereby hindering the development of a harmonious, functionally and esthetically acceptable dentition. This article describes the fabrication and clinical application of a modified functional distal shoe appliance used due to pathological obliteration of the primary/deciduous mandibular second molar prior to the eruption of the permanent mandibular first molar.

Premature loss of primary teeth can lead to crowding, rotation, ectopic eruption and impaction of permanent teeth. All of these issues can be reduced or avoided through proper preventive and interceptive orthodontic procedures including the use of space maintainers and space regainers, many of which require two visits and a laboratory phase for fabrication. The 'Junaidi space regainer' is an attempt to make the space regaining procedure simpler and easier.
