An Uncommon Occurrence of Three-Fourth Molars Concomitant to Hypodontia in a Nonsyndromic Patient.

Bilaterally mandibular and maxillary fourth molars, concomitant to hypodontia, are uncommon. These dental anomalies, called hypohyperdontia, are rare and etiology is not well defined. Several complications may occur as a consequence of supernumerary teeth, such as teeth impaction, resorption of adjacent teeth, and development of cysts and tumors. The authors present an uncommon occurrence of three-fourth molars concomitant to hypodontia and dentigerous cyst associated with impacted mandibular second and third molars in a nonsyndromic patient. The authors attempt to discuss the occurrence of bilaterally fourth molars and reinforce the importance of clinical approach, considering risks and benefits for the patient.
