Abstract

Ectopic mandibular third molar is an uncommon condition, and the information regarding its causes and characteristics are not completely clarified. This article aims to report three extremely rare cases of asymptomatic ectopic mandibular third molars in the ramus of the mandible which were found accidentally during regular dental treatment. The treatment for asymptomatic impacted ectopic mandibular third molars without any pathologic related condition should be in a conservative manner without surgical intervention, but radiographic annual follow-up is indicated with monitoring for the development of any pathology.
