ObjectiveThis study aimed to compare the developmental timing and mineralization quality of mesiodentes, i.e., supernumerary teeth located mainly in the midline of the maxilla between the central incisors, with the developmental timing and mineralization quality of permanent and primary central incisors.DesignSixteen mesiodentes, nine permanent and seven primary central incisors were collected. The location of the neonatal line was determined using a light microscope at 10× or 20× enlargements. Chemical composition of the enamel at two locations was analyzed using energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer.ResultsNeonatal lines were observed in eight out of 16 mesiodentes, in all primary central incisors and in none of the permanent central incisors. Chemical analyses showed that mesiodentes mineralization was impaired, resulting in higher amount of organic ions and reduced inorganic ions. Discriminant analysis showed minimal overlap of mesiodentes with either primary or permanent centrals.ConclusionsMesiodentes development begins before birth in 50% of the cases but later than the primary centrals. Mineralization of mesiodens is impaired with less mineral content and higher organic content. The results showed that mesiodentes are a special group of teeth with defective morpho-differentiation and mineralization, with little similarity to primary or permanent central incisors.
