Abstrakt: Supernumerary teeth (SNT) may occur any region of both the arches and both dentitions. Mesiodens is the common type of (SNT), occur in pre-maxillary region. Supernumerary teeth cause a range of complications like crowding, impaction, rotations, displacement, cyst formation and etc. Dens invaginatus is a developmental anomaly resulting in an invagination of pulp into enamel and dentin prior to calcification of the dental tissues. The purpose of this manuscript is to describe a case of premolariform mesiodens caused impaction and resorption of central incisor. The radiographic and histological examination of dilacerated SNT showed evidence of dens invaginatus. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
