Children typically have 20 teeth.
This 7-year-old child had 526.
There were a total of 526 teeth ranging from 0.1 millimeters (.004 inches) to 15 millimeters (0.6 inches).
Even the smallest piece had a crown, root and enamel coat indicating it was a tooth.
The boy is suffering from a very rare condition called compound composite odontoma.
The cause of the condition is unclear, but it could be genetic or due to environmental factors like radiation.
According to doctors, the boy actually may have had the numerous extra teeth for some time as his parents had noticed swelling in his jaw when he was as young as 3… so 4 years ago.
Meanwhile, the boy has a healthy count of 21 teeth
