Abstract
Supernumerary teeth (hyperdontia) are relatively common in the general population and occur more frequently in patients with a family histor y of such teeth. Supernumerary teeth have been reported in many geneti c syndromes, but multiple supernumerary teeth occurring as an isolated non-syndromic trait are rare. This article describes a rare non-syndr omic variety of multiple impacted supernumerary teeth in two brothers.
