Abstract :
Ectopic eruption is a developmental
disturbance in eruption pattern of permanent dentition
most often associated with maxillary first permanent
molar (2-6%of general population), mandibular lateral
incisors (<1%), maxillary permanent canines (1.5-2%).
Ectopic eruption of teeth is a rare phenomenon although
cases have been reported in nasal cavity, maxillary sinus,
mandible, palate, orbital cavity. Ectopic eruption of
mandibular first premolar is a rare condition and there
were no discussions in the literature about its eruption in
coronoid process. Premature loss of primary second
molar and second permanent premolar can lead to
disturbed eruption of first premolar. In this case report,
we present an ectopic mandibular first premolar at the
level of sigmoid notch below the right coronoid process.
