What problem is NOT typically associated with mesiodens?

Mesiodens refers to a type of supernumerary tooth that typically erupts in the midline of the maxilla, between the two central incisors. One of the key characteristics of mesiodens is its association with various dental problems.

Cyst formation can occur as a complication of mesiodens if the tooth prevents the proper eruption of adjacent teeth or leads to other dental irregularities, which can subsequently cause cystic changes in the jaw. Malocclusion is also a common issue related to mesiodens. The presence of a mesiodens can disrupt the alignment of the teeth, leading to bite problems and misalignment. Furthermore, food impaction tends to occur due to the misalignment and irregular positioning of teeth resulting from a mesiodens, which can create spaces where food can become trapped.

On the other hand, color discoloration is not typically associated with mesiodens. While other dental issues may lead to discoloration of teeth, the presence of a mesiodens itself does not directly cause changes in the color of adjacent teeth.
