Double teeth, also called connated or cojoined teeth, are clinically present as two separate teeth united by dentin. It occurs due to the fusion of two individual tooth buds or the partial splitting of one into two. An accessory supernumerary fourth molar is called a distomolar or distodens. Usually, the distomolar has a small crown that can be conical, peg-shaped, or like a small premolar called molariform distomolar that occurs distal to the last molar. This case presents an impacted molariform distomolar with the fusion of crown and root in a 27-year-old female.
