Unusual Presentation of Four Natal Molars and One Incisor in the Same Patient: A Case Report

Introduction: Natal teeth are dental organs present at birth. The worldwide prevalence of natal teeth is 34.55 per 10,000. In 90% of cases, they are primary teeth, while in 10% of cases, they are supernumerary teeth. Case report: A 3-day-old male patient with a family history of natal teeth on the paternal side. Without pathological antecedents, the patient has received complete immunization according to his age, as well as the administration of vitamin K at birth. Intraoral examination revealed the presence of 5 dental organs diagnosed as natal teeth, including: 1 upper right molar, 1 upper left molar, 1 lower right molar, 1 lower left molar, and 1 lower central incisor. These teeth were observed to be hypermobile, mucosa-supported, and with generalized hypoplasia. The treatment of choice was the extraction of all five dental organs, under local anesthesia with 2% lidocaine. There were no complications, neither during the surgical procedure nor afterward. Conclusion: Dental extraction was the elective treatment in this case. No local or general complications were reported. The treatment of natal teeth should be personalized, taking into account the variables of each case. Received: 07/22/2024Accepted: 08/13/2024
