ConclusionsUnerupted permanent incisors were associated with supernumerary teeth and ectopic eruption of permanent canines. Specifically, a higher proportion of unerupted maxillary central incisors was associated with the presence of supernumerary teeth, whereas a higher percentage of unerupted maxillary lateral incisors was associated with the ectopic eruption of permanent canines.
