Multiple supernumerary molars are rare and are usually detected on routine radiological investigations. Supernumerary molars could occur as paramolars or distomolars. Occurrence of distomolars in children is reported to be a rare occurrence. In this report of 3 cases, bilateral maxillary and mandibular impacted fourth molars were observed as incidental findings on orthopanthomograms in children between the ages of 12 and 15 years.
多生磨牙较为罕见,通常在常规影像学检查中被发现。多生磨牙可表现为副磨牙或远中磨牙。据报道,儿童中出现远中磨牙的情况很少见。在本报告的3例病例中,12至15岁儿童的全景片检查中偶然发现双侧上颌和下颌埋伏第四磨牙。
