  • Indian doctors were at their wit’s end after excising as many as 500 teeth from a seven-year-old’s palate in Chennai, India. The young patient was only three when his lower right jaw started to swell up but was left undiagnosed for four years as his parents lacked the right knowledge. The doctors diagnosed it to be a rare case of "compound composite ondontome", the boy was brought to the hospital with a swelling in his lower right jaw. "Later as swelling increased, the parents brought the boy to our hospital," said P.Senthilnathan, Professor -Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at at the Saveetha Dental College and Hospital on Wednesday. According to the doctors, the patient's family was worried that the swelling was carcinogenic. An X-ray and CT-scan of the boy's lower right jaw showed a lot of rudimentary teeth following which the doctors decided on the surgery. A team of doctors operated on the boy for five-long hours and successfully removed 526 teeth-like structures from his mouth. "We opened up the jaw after administering general anaesthesia and saw a bag/sack inside it. The sack, weighing about 200 grams, was carefully removed and was later found to contain 526 teeth -- small, medium and big sized,” said Dr Senthilnathan. Dr. Pratibha Ramani, Professor and Head of Department of oral and maxillofacial pathology, said, “Social consciousness on emerging environmental hazards is imperative. Every tissue information is patient’s right, surgical decision making is the key and final diagnostic expert is the pathologist.” According to the doctors, this is the first ever case documented in the world in which in an individual has been found to have so many minute teeth. Though some were very tiny particles, the doctors said, they had the properties of teeth. It took five long hours for the doctors to remove all the minute teeth from the sack.
