Ectopic Intra-Nasal Tooth: A Case Report

Journal Title: Journal of Case Reports and Studies - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 4

Abstract

An ectopic tooth in a nasal cavity is a rare phenomenon. In most cases, no etiological explanation of teeth in that location has been suggested or found. We report the case of a 26-year-old man, who discovered, 5 years ago, an induration inside his right nasal pit, which caused an unilateral nasal obstruction, without rhinorrhea, with epistaxis, revealing an ectopic in intra-nasal tooth.
