Objective: The present research of basic, descriptive and retrospective type, had as main objective to determine the Frequency of Supernumerary Teeth in children of 4 - 6 years of age of the Radiological Center “Imágenes Rx”. Trujillo, 2018. Materials and Methods: The study had a population of 1512 panoramic radiographs of patients aged 4-6 years, of which 780 were female and 732 were male, which met the established inclusion and exclusion criteria. The findings were recorded on the data collection sheet, specifying gender, number, location and arch affected. The results were presented in double-entry tables and graphs. Results: Data obtained at the end of the investigation showed that 27 patients out of the total presented supernumerary teeth (1.8%). Of the 780 female patients 14 (1. 77%) had supernumerary teeth and of the 732 male patients 13 (1. 79%) had supernumerary teeth. We found 18 cases of single supernumerary teeth (1. 2%), 6 cases with even supernumerary teeth (0. 4) and 3 cases with more than two supernumerary teeth (0. 2%). Depending on the location, 27 patients were found with mesiodens (1. 8%) and 0 patients with paramolars (0%). Finally, taking into account the affected arch, we found 27 patients with supernumerary teeth in the upper jaw (1. 8%) and 0 patients with supernumerary teeth in the lower jaw (0%). Conclusions: A frequency of 1.8% of supernumerary teeth was found in the studied population.
