Abstract :
Although the delayed exfoliation of primary teeth among children is a common dental
problem, simultaneous presence of primary teeth and corresponding successors is a rare feature
in adults. This paper reports an unusual case in which both permanent teeth (molars, premolars,
and canines) and primary teeth were present simultaneously. This report describes questions
concerning the etiology of overretention of primary teeth.
