Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) provides images without overlapping anatomical structures, which is important for the diagnosis and assessment of florid cemento-osseous dysplasia. This fibro-osseous lesion that affects alveolar process compromising teeth’ pulp vitality usually asymptomatic, bone expansion, cortical disruption, root resorption are uncommon. Due to its avascular characterist...

The epithelial tissue forming the posterior aspect of the apical foramen in the upper incisor of the rat was reconstructed from 1 μm thick serial cross sections. Like the lower incisor, this portion of the odontogenic organ in the upper incisor was composed of a bulbous and a "U"-shaped part. However, the bulbous part was considerably blunter and the "U"-shaped part much larger in circumference...

Abstract Impaction of maxillary central incisors is not common. Treatment of an impacted central incisor is challenging as it relates to facial esthetics and dental function. Although impaction of permanent teeth is rarely diagnosed in mixed dentition period, an impacted central incisor is usually diagnosed when there is a delay in the eruption of tooth. Tooth impaction may result from...

a case of a compound odontoma which caused delayed eruption of right maxillary central incisor in a ten year old girl is presented with clinical and radiographic findings. the patient presented with complaint of a hard painless swelling in the right anterior region of the maxilla and absence of right maxillary central incisor. after clinical examination, periapical and occlusal radiographs of t...

an accurate diagnosis of the morphology of the root canal system is a pre-requisite for successful root canal treatment. frequently, root canals are left untreated because the clinicians fail to identify their presence, particularly in teeth that have anatomical variations or additional root canals. in this report a maxillary lateral incisor with two roots has been described.

This was a cross-sectional study of the prevalence and orthodontic management developmental missing permanent maxillary lateral incisor patients referred for treatment from year 2010 to 2020. The dental records written case notes, radiographs, models that fulfilled inclusion criteria were selected using systematic sampling assessed retrospectively. Sample taken every five records. Dental did no...

AIM The aims of this study were firstly to determine the fate of unerupted permanent maxillary incisor teeth following supernumerary tooth removal and secondly to make recommendations regarding the management of such incisor teeth following supernumerary tooth extraction. STUDY DESIGN This is a retrospective study. METHODS Records of children attending the Departments of Paediatric Dentistr...

The maxillary lateral incisor is the second most common congenitally absent tooth. There are several treatment options for replacing the missing maxillary lateral incisor, including canine substitution, tooth-supported restoration, or single-tooth implant. Dental implants are an appropriate treatment option for replacing missing maxillary lateral incisor teeth in adolescents when their dental a...

This article describes the treatment of a girl in whom anterior trauma during the deciduous dentition had caused a dilacerated maxillary central incisor in the mixed dentition. The dilacerated central incisor was extracted, and a canine was transposed to the extraction site. Canine transposition was performed so that the lateral incisor could be maintained in its normal position. This article d...
