Impacted tooth is partially erupted or cannot be erupted entirely because it is blocked by bone or soft tissue or both. The most commonly place where the impacted tooth can be found are mandibular and maxillary third molars, maxillary canines, mandibular premolars and supernumerary teeth.

Results: The results 6 months after the odontectomy, no abnormalities and healing in the bones were seen after the procedure.
Conclusion: From this case report, it can be conclude that impacted tooth can also occur in other tooth, for example in mandibular second molars. Not only the third molars, canines, premolars or supernumerary teeth.
