Six mandibular permanent incisors: report of a case.
This article involves dental management of a girl with bilateral supplemental mandibular permanent incisors. If not removed promptly, these supernumerary teeth will lead to crowding and malocclusion; as a result, early diagnosis is important. Dentists who treat children should be aware of this condition when unusual crowding and displacement is seen in the mandibular incisor region.
