Case study:

medical, and family history was unremarkable

where there were soft friable spicules of teeth in the incisor and molar regions Dental caries was present in
the left maxillary and mandibular first and second primary molars and the left maxillary central incisor .
Radiographically, the succedaneous permanent teeth germs showed very thin enamel and dentin layers with
lack of differentiation between them and with enlarged pulp chambers, giving them a typical "Ghost-like"
appearance. Radiopaque masses were found in the incisor and molar regions of the right maxilla, which were
the remnants of primary teeth
