Abstract:
The presence of an ectopic supernumerary tooth in the nose is an uncommon phenomenon. A supernumerary tooth may be asymptomatic but must be given special attention as it has the potential to cause significant morbidity. Bilateral intranasal supernumerary teeth are an extremely rare disease entity. We report the clinical and radiologic findings of bilateral ectopic supernumerary teeth erupted from the nasal floor.
