Abstract: The Pila-Wilkie theorem states that if a set $Xsubseteqmathbb{R}^n$ is definable in an o-minimal structure $mathcalR$ and contains `many' rational points, then it contains an infinite semialgebraic set. In this paper, we extend this theorem to an expansion $widetildemathcalR=langlemathcalR,Pangle$ of $mathcalR$ by a dense set $P$, which is either an elementary substructure of $mathcalR$, or it is independent, as follows. If $X$ is definable in $widetildemathcalR$ and contains many rational points, then it is dense in an infinite semialgebraic set. Moreover, it contains an infinite set which is $emptyset$-definable in $langleoverlinemathbbR,Pangle$, where $overlinemathbbR$ is the real field.
