Journal Title: Journal of Case Reports and Studies - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 4
Abstract
Supernumerary ectopic teeth are not uncommon; they present in abnormal location in oral cavity or may occupy a more unusual position, such as Maxillary Antrum. They are often diagnosed as incidental finding on routine Radiography; however, few may be symptomatic. Treatment options vary from endoscopic removal to conventional extraction by dental surgeon. Presence of Ectopic tooth in nasal cavity is rare; very few cases have been described in literature. We present here a case of supernumerary ectopic tooth in nasal cavity which was mistaken as a case of foreign body nose and lead to complications.
