A case is presented of a late developing maxillary supernumerary tooth in the permanent dentition. The patient had a supernumerary tooth fused to a central incisor in the primary dentition. This case emphasizes the importance of careful follow-up of patients with a history of supernumerary teeth and, where clinically indicated, of further radiographic examination.
