Abstract

Intranasal ectopic teeth are rare and ectopic eruption of teeth can occur in a variety of locations. Commonly seen in the palate and maxillary sinus, they have also been reported in the mandibular condyle, coronoid process, orbital and nasal cavities, and through the skin.

The endoscopic surgical approach used in this case caused less morbidity than do the more common methods of removing an intranasal ectopic tooth
