Misdiagnosis of an impacted supernumerary tooth from a panographic radiograph.

T P McVaney, K L Kalkwarf.   

Abstract

A panographic radiograph of a 31-year-old man revealed the presence of an impacted supernumerary paramolar. Periapical radiographs of the same area failed to confirm the existence of this supernumerary tooth. A review of the inherent distortion factors present in panographic radiography leading to the misdiagnosis is discussed.
