Second molar impaction associated with lip bumper therapy
INTRODUCTION Although lip bumpers (LBs) provide significant clinical gain of mandibular arch perimeter in mixed-dentition patients, orthodontists are reluctant to use them due to the possibility of permanent second molar eruptive disturbances. OBJECTIVE The present study was conducted to assess second molar impaction associated with the use of LBs, and to investigate how they can be solved. ...
متن کاملEtiological factors in second mandibular molar impaction
OBJECTIVES The impaction of the second mandibular molar (MM2) has recently become more prevalent. Several etiological hypothesis have been proposed to investigate the association between skeletal features and impaction of MM2. The aims of this study were to analyze the skeletal features in patients with MM2 impaction and the association between arrested eruption of MM2 and the presence of the t...
متن کاملMandibular changes associated with maxillary impaction and molar intrusion
We report a case series of ten patients who presented with anterior open bite. The initial evaluation included clinical pictures, lateral cephalometric radiographs and dental casts. They were assessed according to the severity of the open bite and the cause (skeletal or dental). They all underwent orthodontic treatment as an initial step. Five patients with dental open bite underwent molar intr...
متن کاملImpaction of permanent mandibular second molar: A retrospective study
OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence of impacted mandibular second molar (MM2) and the association between MM2 impaction and crowding. The clinical significance of the angle between first and second mandibular molar and of the space between the first mandibular molar (MM1) and the anterior margin of mandibular ramus in MM2 impaction were also evaluated. MATERIAL AND METHODS In this retrospec...
متن کاملMandibular second molar impaction treatment using skeletal anchorage.
The mandibular second molar impaction is a rare dental anomaly with a very challenging treatment. Although there are some treatment modalities, often the proper option is surgical exposure and orthodontically assisted eruption with a high rate of success depending on the appropriate appliance design, which assures a good control of the tooth movement with minimum side effects. A case report of ...
