Occurrence of supernumerary teeth is the most common dental anomaly which is seen day to day clinical practice. Impaction of the permanent mandibular central incisor is a rare phenomenon usually caused by presence of supernumerary tooth in the midline called mesiodens. The aim of this article is to present a case, in which permanent maxillary right central incisor showed low and vertical level of impaction along with presence of two supernumerary teeth and short root anomaly.
