Sir, a 19-year-old female patient was referred to our department by her general dental surgeon for the removal of her lower wisdom teeth.

At her appointment for the removal of the first wisdom tooth, the orthopantomogram (Figure 1), which was taken 18 months previously, was noted to be different compared with the newer one (Figure 2).

The wisdom teeth seem to have rotated and changed their position from mesioangulated to horizontal.
