"There were 526 teeth coming out of my chin"

526 teeth were found in the jaw of a 7-year-old boy in India.

A number of foreign media, including CNN in the United States and Times of India in India, reported on January 1 (local time) about the boy Rabindranat (7), who lives in Chennai, South India.

The boy has swollen his right cheek since last month. I had severe pain. Parents naturally thought it was cavities. So I took her to the dentist.

X-rays and computed tomography (CT) scans confirmed that a tumor pouch filled with abnormal teeth was found inside the lower jaw of the molar side of the boy. It is a compound tooth species.

The medical staff immediately went to surgery. The operation lasted over 5 hours. All 526 teeth were removed. The medical staff said, “The sizes and shapes of 0.1mm to 15mm are different, but they can be classified as teeth.”

However, the medical staff also failed to find out why the boy's complex dental disease occurred. It is estimated that radiation from the cell phone transmission tower and genetic factors may have affected it.
