The purpose of this study was to evaluate the incidence and radiographic features of 1,300 cases of supernumerary teeth by means of the analysis of periapical radiograms and/or pantomograms in 69,442 persons visited the Department of Oral Radiology, School of Dentistry, Kyung Hee University during January 1980 to December 1989. This study of supernumerary teeth revealed the following features: 1. The incidence of supernumerary tooth was revealed to be 1.5% in total examined persons, and there was a higher incidence in males (74.0%) than in females (26.0%). 2. The supernumerary teeth were most frequently occurred in the 1 st decade (42.7%), followed by the 2nd decades (20.2%), the 3rd decades (14.1 %), and the 5th decades (7.2%). 3. There was a higher incidence in the maxilla (98.7%) than in the mandible (1.3%), and mesiodens (90.1 %) was the most frequently occurred. The maxillary lateral incisor region (3.1%) was next in order of frequency followed by maxillary distomolar (2.2%), and maxillary paramolar (1.5%). 4. There was a higher incidence of the impaction (82.7%) than that of the eruption (17.3%), and supernumerary tooth in lateral incisor region (87.8%) was the most frequently impacted one. 5. The inverted impaction was occurred in 63.1%, the vertical impaction in 18.1%, and the angulated impaction in 18.8%. In localization, a palatally (lingually) impacted supernumerary tooth was occurred in 85.0%, and middle impacted and buccally (labially) impacted supernumerary tooth showed the same incidence (7.5%). 6. A supplemental tooth was occurred in 3.2%, an accessory tooth in 96.8%, and a supplemental tooth was the most frequently occurred in maxillary lateral incisor and mandibular premolar region. 7. In effects of supernumerary tooth on adjacent tooth, crowding was occurred in 0.4%, diastema in 10.6%, rotation in 5.4%, eruption disturbance in 4.5%, root resorption in 2.5%, and dentigerous cyst in 2.2%.
