Purpose: Mesiodens is a supernumerary type of teeth, and the palatal between the two mid-cutting teeth is even placed in the middle. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the distribution of mesiodens according to the shape, location and complications with conic radiated computer tomography images (KIBT). Tools and Methods: This study was conducted by the retrospective examination of the KIBT images of the facts. Recorded data are the age, gender, shape (conic, cutting tooth, tubular, round), direction (vertical, semi-vertical, horizontal, reverse), position (covered or continued), whether or not any pathology or complications are formed (related to neighbor's tooth delayed, root resorption, cystic formation, diestema, neighbor's tooth replacement) and the relationship with neighbor's anatomical structures (nose gap, nasopalatin channel). The age distribution of patients was between 7 and 61 years and the average age was 16.2. According to the results obtained; the mediodens were found to be mostly cutting tooth (38.5%) and conic shape (33.8%) . The Mesiodens frequently viewed direction was vertical (38.5%) and the vast majority of it remained buried (92.3). Thirty-six patients (72%) had one mesiodens, 13 patients (26%) had two, and in one case three mesiodens (2%). The most common complication was delayed duration (29.2%). In 49.2% of cases, no complications were observed. Thirteen incidents (24.1%) were associated with the nasal emptiness, while 43 incidents (66.1%) were associated with the canal of nazopalatin Result: Radiographic examination, especially KIBT images, is important for the accurate diagnosis, evaluation and treatment of meshodens. Keywords: computer tomography of conic radiation; meziodens; supernumerary tooth
