Abstract
The presence of an intranasal tooth is a rare clinical reported phenomenon mostly when it is associated with cleft lip and palate. It can cause several problems such as nasal obstruction, chronic rhinorrhea and phonetic problems. The treatment comprises the entire removal of this intranasal tooth. We report a case of a two and a half year old male child operated for bilateral cleft lip and palate who presented an intranasal tooth in the left nostril.
