Rare Tooth Condition

This rare phenomenon is called an 'ectopic tooth', a tooth that develops or erupts in the wrong place, instead of the mouth.

Doctors say that ignoring persistent tooth pain, swelling, or a dental abscess can increase the chances of complications, especially in people with weakened immunity or uncontrolled diabetes.
