Supernumerary teeth are an important cause of dental retention. Multiple supernumerary teeth without a syndrome are rare. Most of such cases are found in association with syndromes such as Gardner's syndrome, cleidocranial dysostosis and cleft lip and palate. It has been reported that the prevalence for non-syndrome multiple supernumerary teeth is less than 1%.We describe here, a case of a 24 year old patient presenting with thirty four impacted permanent and supernumerary teeth, which is a unique presentation in the absence of any syndrome.
