Unerupted Primary Molar Teeth Positioned Inferior to the Permanent Premolar: A Case Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
Primary tooth impaction is a rare finding during the development of primary dentition. Several factors contribute to the impaction of a deciduous tooth. This report describes the diagnosis and treatment of a 10-year-old boy who presented an impacted second primary mandibular molar. This tooth, located inferior to the second premolar together with an odontoma, was positioned superior to the premolar teeth. Treatment consisted of surgical removal of the impacted deciduous tooth and odontoma and placement of a passive lower lingual holding arch. Periodic examination was indicated for follow-up. Early intervention was recommended to manage orofacial disfigurement and to avoid consequent problems.

A rare case of unerupted second deciduous molar located inferior to the second premolar: case report.
AIM Tooth eruption is defined as the movement of a tooth from its site of development within the alveolar process to its functional position in the oral cavity [Massler et al., 1941]. The process of tooth eruption can be divided into different phases: pre-eruptive bone stage, alveolar bone stage, mucosal stage, preocclusal stage, occlusal stage and maturation stage [Andreasen et al., 1997].

متن کاملSevere Impaction of the Primary Mandibular Second Molar Accompanied by Displacement of the Permanent Second Premolar
Tooth impaction is defined as any tooth that fails to erupt into a normal functional position and remains unerupted beyond the time at which it should normally erupt. Reports of impaction and eruption failure in primary teeth are relatively rare compared to permanent teeth. We report 2 rare cases where the second premolar was located on the occlusal side of the impacted mandibular second primar...
متن کاملExternal resorption in an unerupted second permanent molar: case report
The literature on radiolucent lesions in unerupted permanent teeth is reviewed with particular attention to etiology. A case is presented which demonstrates severe coronal destruction of a mandibular second permanent molar. Histological evidence also is presented to confirm diagnosis of external resorption. Based on previous literature and the results of this case, the authors conclude that the...
متن کاملMarsupialization of a large dentigerous cyst in the mandible with orthodontic extrusion of three impacted teeth. A case report
The dentigerous cyst (DC) is the most common type of developmental odontogenic cyst. It is usually asymptomatic and associated with the crown of an unerupted or impacted tooth. However, after a long duration, it is likely to cause significant bone resorption, cortical expansion, and tooth displacement. This report presents a large infected DC in the mandible of a 12-year-old female patient. The...
