Abstract

The presence of supernumerary teeth can interfere in normal occlusal development. The pediatric dentist should diagnose them as soon as possible, as most of the time they are asymptomatic. The objective of this paper is to show the presence of that dental anomaly in two pediatric patients, as well as the associated clinical complications with treatment.
