Geminated Supernumerary Premolar Impacted in the Palate: A Report of a Rare Case and Review of the Literature.

Supernumerary teeth are dental anomalies characterized by the presence of an excessive number of teeth in relation to normal dentition. Among these, the supernumerary premolars have a prevalence of 0.29% to 0.64%, making it a very rare finding. On the other hand, gemination is a developmental disturbance in the shape of the teeth where a partial cleavage of a single tooth germ results in the formation of a singular root and a singular pulp chamber but two partially or totally separated crowns. Although these anomalies as individual entities are fairly common in clinical practice, the occurrence of both anomalies in a single tooth is an extremely rare occurrence. We hereby report a rare case of impacted geminated supernumerary premolar in a 45-year-old female patient. A thorough search of the literature revealed that only four cases listing this anomaly have been reported in the literature thus deserving a mention. In addition to the case presentation, the authors have also reviewed the existing literature on this anomaly.
