- C. Mesiodens is the most common supernumerary tooth
- D. More common in mandible
Explanation
Supernumerary teeth occur more often in the maxilla, especially as mesiodens, so the statement that they are more common in the mandible is false. Disto-molars usually do not resemble a specific normal tooth, while mesiodens is the commonest type.
