Abstract

‘Wisdom tooth’ or ‘Third molars’ are very interesting tooth not only for oral and maxillofacial surgeons but also for all other specialists of medicine and dentistry. Mandibular third molars are the most often affected tooth and show variations in eruption, size, shape, development, positions and associated with anomalies. The purpose of this article is to present a rarest case of inverted unilateral impacted mandibular left third molar in the ascending ramus of the mandible and was associated with a cystic lesion which is rarely encountered in clinical practice during impaction procedures. Reporting of such interesting and uncommon presentations of dental structures is highly essential to provide utmost care to the patient as well as to make guidelines and protocols for their management.
