Abstract
Impaction of a mandibular premolar is relatively uncommon. Ectopic placement is more unusual and there has been no discussion
in the literature of an ectopic mandibular premolar in the coronoid process. In this case report, we present an impacted ectopic
mandibular permanent premolar in the sigmoid notch (incisura mandibulae) region. Etiology of the tooth and treatment options
are discussed and illustrated by Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) images.
