Radiographs play an important role in assessment of both the location and the typing of supernumerary teeth. In general, periapical, occlusal, and/or panoramic radiographs are sufficient for providing the information required by the clinician. These modalities, however, do not provide detailed information concerning the 3-dimensional relationship between supernumerary or ectopically impacted teeth and adjacent structures. This case report discusses the value of computerized tomography (CT) for evaluation of the root relationships of supernumerary teeth located palatally to maxillary permanent central incisors. CT accurately demonstrated the relationship between the supernumerary teeth and the permanent tooth roots.
X线片在多生牙的位置评估和分型中起着重要作用。一般来说，根尖片、咬合片和/或全景片足以提供临床医生所需的信息。然而，这些检查方式并不能提供关于多生牙或异位阻生牙与相邻结构之间三维关系的详细信息。本病例报告讨论了计算机断层扫描（CT）在评估位于上颌恒中切牙腭侧的多生牙牙根关系中的价值。CT准确地显示了多生牙与恒牙牙根之间的关系。
