Doctors in India treating a seven-year-old boy for a strangely swollen jaw were astounded to find that he had a tumor which contained 526 teeth! The amazing discovery reportedly took place at a hospital in the city of Chennai, where the unnamed youngster's parents had brought him in for an examination after he'd complained about prolonged pain in his jaw that began when he was three and grew increasingly uncomfortable.
An x-ray of the boy's mouth revealed that there was an odd growth in his jaw. Upon removing the unsettling sac, doctors were stunned to learn that it contained a whopping 526 teeth which encompassed a fairly large range of sizes. Remarkably, one of the doctors observed, "even the smallest piece had a crown, root and enamel coat indicating it was a tooth."
