Abstract
Višestruka hiperdoncija rijetka je i obično povezana s kompleksnim sindromima ili geminacijom. Najčešći tretman koji se u tom slučaju primjenjuje jest uklanjanje prekobrojnih zuba iz profilaktičkih razloga. Svrha je ovog prikaza opisati izoliranu pojavu prekobrojnih zuba na više lokacija u čeljusti, no nepovezanih s bilo kojim sindromom. Jedan od zuba bio je rijedak i kao fenomen jer je imao anatomiju korijenskih kanala specifičnu za geminaciju. Ektopični zubi izvađeni su jer su uzrokovali nelagodu, bol i otekline u ustima. Ekstrahirana su tri prekobrojna zuba bez postoperacijskih komplikacija. Kontrolni pregled bio je dogovoren za godinu dana i tada nije bilo recidiva.Multiple hyperodontia rarely occurs without being associated with complex syndromes or gemination. The prophylactic surgical removal of the supernumerary teeth is generally the treatment of choice. The aim of this case report was to present an isolated nonsyndromic occurrence of multiple supernumerary teeth, one of which had a root canal anatomy of gemination, representing a rare phenomenon. However, since the ectopic teeth were associated with discomfort, pain and swelling, surgical treatment was necessary. The chosen treatment was surgery, with the extraction of the three supernumerary teeth and no evidence of any postoperative complications. No recurrences occurred in one year of follow-up
