| Abstract | |
Supernumerary teeth and germination are extremely rare conditions in the primary dentition. An exhaustive review of literature regarding these conditions and their effects on permanent dentition is discussed. A unique and hitherto unreported case of concurrent supplementary primary canine and germination of primary central incisor is presented here. Due to lack of baseline data regarding their prevalence, need for such studies and hence forth increasing dental awareness to the common man is stressed upon. |
