ABSTRACT. Mesiodens are supernumerary teeth, commonly seen in the maxillary midline. Given their high frequency, dentist should be aware of the signs and symptoms of mesiodens and their appropriate treatment. This case report describes an 8-year-old girl with a radiographic image suggesting two unerupted mesiodens between the central incisors on the palate. The intraoral examination showed swelling in the anterior INTRODUCCIÓNLos dientes supernumerarios tienen una prevalencia que oscila entre el 0,3 y el 3,8%. 1 Es clasificado como una anomalía de número, caracterizada por la presencia de una o más piezas dentarias en exceso con respecto a la cantidad normal. Cuando la región afectada está ubicada en la línea media del paladar entre los dos incisivos centrales superiores es llamado mesiodens y este presenta una prevalencia de 0,15 a 1,9% en la población general. 2, 3, 4Aunque esta anomalía tiene una prevalencia significativa, su etiología no está definida. Hay tres teorías que tratan de explicar esta anomalía dental: dicotomía del germen dentario, hiperactividad de la lámina dentaria 5 y la combinación de factores genéticos y ambientales; 1, 6 esto puede ocurrir como un diente único, múltiple, unilateral o bilateral y también asociado con síndromes, como el síndrome de Down y la displasia cleidocraneal. 7, 8 Esta alteración es más común en hombres que en mujeres y es menos frecuente en la dentición primaria.Los dientes mesiodens son asintomáticos, se pueden descubrir durante un examen radiológico de rutina o por un aumento de volumen, y cuando entran en erupción en la cavidad oral.Sin embargo, en algunos puede traer una variedad de complicaciones, como retención, retraso en la erupción, erupción ectópica, diastemas, rotación axial y reabsorción radicular de los dientes adyacentes. 7, 9-11 También pueden causar apiñamiento y pueden asociarse con patologías, como quistes.12 Entre las complicaciones que afectan a los incisivos permanentes se encuentran las dilaceraciones de las raíces en desarrollo y la pérdida de la vitalidad. 13Por lo tanto, el diagnóstico precoz de los mesiodens es muy importante para evitar este tipo de complicaciones, utilizando exámenes clínicos y radiográficos para localizar la posición correcta y el planeamiento quirúrgico con el momento ideal para la intervención (inmediata o retardada).

“…11 Most of the mesiodens in our study were erupted in 54.7% cases similar to study by Sulabha et al 12 and impacted mesiodens were 45.3% which was lower than other studies in literature. 8,11,13 This may be explained by presence of large numbers of conical mesiodens which are more likely to erupt.…”

“…8 In the present crosssectional retrospective study based on the hospital records, 40 patients showed the presence of 53 mesiodens. The male female ratio in present study was 3:1 which was similar to findings of other studies like, Kim et al, 9 Asaumi et al 7 and Huang et al 4 that reported 4:1, 2.8:1 and 2.5:1, respectively.…”

“…They might cause clinical complications like retention of the primary teeth, delayed/failure of eruption of permanent teeth, ectopic eruption, rotation of adjacent teeth, root resorption, abnormal diastema, formation of dentigerous and primodial cysts, hence requiring surgical or orthodontic intervention. 1,[4][5][6][7][8] This study was conducted to determine radiographic features and management of mesiodens in the Department of Pediatric Dentistry at Kantipur Dental college and hospital.…”

Background: A mesiodens, is the most frequent supernumerary tooth present in the maxillary central incisor region. This study is conducted to know the radiographic characteristics and management of mesiodens in children visiting hospital. Methods:A cross-sectional retrospective data collection was done from hospital dental records of children who visited the institution from December 2015-December 2016. Radiographic characteristic of mesiodens including the number, shape, position, direction of crown and complication caused by mesiodens were recorded. Data were analyzed using IBM SPSS v.20.0. Results:Out of 1871 dental records, it was found that 40 children had 53 mesiodens, with male female ratio of 3:1 and most of them were discovered at 8 years. Majority of mesiodens, 54.7% were erupted, conical, palatally placed with 77.3% vertically directed crown.Complications associated with it were crowding followed by diastema and delayed eruption. Among 40 children, one had three mesiodens, eleven had two mesiodens and rest had one each. Radiographically fully formed tooth was seen in 29 mesiodens. Immature apex was seen in 38 central incisors associated with mesiodens. Management undertaken was simple/surgical extraction and only few cases were kept for periodic observation. Conclusions:Periodic radiographs act as an important tool for clinicians in detecting and managing mesiodens.

“…Hovewer, there can be confusion about when mesiodens should be surgically removed, or whether they should be retained and followed up instead of being treated via multidisiplinary aprroaches (15,28,30). Removal of mesiodens is indicated in the following situations; inhibition or delay of eruption, displacement of the adjacent tooth, interference with orthodontic appliances, presence of a pathological condition, or spontaneous eruption of the supernumerary tooth (25,(31)(32).…”

Purpose: Supernumerary tooth is one of the developmental problems in children. Supernumerary tooth present in the midline of the maxilla is called "mesiodens". Mesiodens present classical oral complication such as impaction of adjacent teeth, crowding, diastema formation, rotation, displacement of teeth, and occlusal interference. The treatment modality is removal of mesiodens and further observation till the permanent incisors erupt. The aim of this study is to evaluate the epidemiological characteristics of mesiodens, with an analysis of the associated clinical-eruptive complications.Materials and Methods: Thirty two patients with mesiodens were included in the present study. Radiological examination, age, sex distribution, number of mesiodens per patient, shape, size, direction of the eruption and the relationship with permanent incisors were documented.Results: The results showed that males were affected approximately 3.5 times more than females; most of the mesiodens were conical in shape (67.56%) where as the rest the others were tuberculate (32.44%). Of the 32 children, 27 (84.37%) had one mesiodens and 5 (15.63%) had two mesiodens bilaterally to midline. 12 mesiodens out of 37 (32.44%) were fully impacted. The most common complication caused by mesiodens was delayed eruption of the permanent incisors and there were 14 cases (43.75%) in such condition.Conclusion: Mesiodens as the most prevalent form of supernumerary teeth in permanent dentition is not a rare condition. Extraction of mesiodens in the early mixed dentition helps spontaneous alignment of the permanent dentition in childhood.Keywords: Supernumerary tooth, mesiodens, midline ÖZ Amaç: Artı dişler çocuklarda gelişimsel bir problem olarak ortaya çıkmaktadır. Maksilla orta hat civarında bulunan artı dişler mesiodens olarak tanımlanır. Mesiodensin komplikasyonları arasında çevredeki daimi dişin gömülü olarak kalması ve/veya sürmemesi, diestema oluşumu, dişlerde rotasyon, yer değişik-liği ve okluzyon problemleridir. Tedavisi mesiodensin çekimi ve daimi dişin sürmesine kadar takiptir. Bu çalışmanın amacı mesiodenslerin epidemiyolojik karakterlerinin değerlendirilmesidir.Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya mesiodensi olan 32 çocuk hasta dahil edilmiştir. Radyolojik muayene, yaş, cinsiyet, hastalardaki mesiodens sayısı, şekli, boyutu, sürme yolu ve daimi kesici dişler ile ilişkileri kaydedilmiştir.Bulgular: Çalışma sonuçlarına göre erkek çocuklarda mesiodens görülme sıklığı kız çocuklara oranla 3.5 kat daha fazladır. En sık görülen mesiodens şekli konik mesiodens (%67.56) olup diğer mesiodensler tüberkül şekillidir (%32.44). Çalışmaya dahil edilen 32 çocuğun 27'sinde (%84.37) bir mesiodens belirlenmiş, kalan 5 (%15.63) çocuk hastada ise bilateral 2 mesiodense rastlanmıştır. Çalışmadaki 37 mesiodensten 12'si (%32.44) tamamen gömüktür. Hastalar arasında en sık görülen komplikasyon, 14 vakada görülmüş olan daimi keser dişlerin sürme gecikmesidir.Sonuç: Erken karışık dişlenme döneminde mesiodenslerin çekimi çocukluk dönemindeki daimi dişlerin sürme ve sıral...
