Abstract

It is uncommon for these rare congenital abnormalities to manifest as craniofacial clefts. The Tessier clefting scheme is one classification technique that is used for diagnosis. A maxillary duplication is an extra bone that is situated behind the maxillary tuberosity. The case of a six-year-old child with bilaterally supernumerary teeth who presented to the Department of Radiodiagnosis of our institute to assess and treat enlarged asymptomatic cheek swelling is presented. On the basis of the patient's medical history, physical examination, and radiological tests, the accessory maxillae were diagnosed. Later, there was a surgical reconstruction.
