Changing positions of supernumerary teeth in the premaxilla: a radiographic study.
To evaluate possible change of position of unerupted supernumerary teeth in the premaxilla, thirty-one patients were followed clinically and radiographically. Alteration in position could be observed in fourteen cases. Occasionally, migration of supernumerary teeth may occur if surgical intervention is postponed, resulting in a more accessible position.
