upernumerary teeth are a rare dental anomaly in maxilla and

mandible can be classified by shape and by position in the jaw.

It might cause complication such as caries, perio dental disease,

and delay or impaction of permanent teeth. Supernumerary tooth

or hyperdontia is not as common as hypodontia. The prevalence

in primary dentition .2% to .8% and in the permanent dentition

.5% to 5.3% with geographic variation. The fourth molar is a

kind of supernumerary tooth that have been classified as a type

of paramolar or distomolars tooth. This is a case report of a 20

years old female patient (medically fit) who came to the dental

clinic complaining of pain in the lower right quadrant upon clinical

examination and routine radiographic examination revealed

impacted third molar and unerupted bilateral mandibular fourth

molar orthopantogram (OPG). X-ray showed this rare case of

unerupted bilateral distomolar in mandible without any associated

of this rare case of impacted bilateral mandibular distomolar and in

what condition shall we keep the fourth molar or extracted.
