background and aims. predicting the teeth eruption time is a valuable tool in pediatric dentistry since it can affects scheduling dental and orthodontic treatments. this study investigated the relationship between the eruption time of first primary and permanent teeth and the variation in the eruption time considering socioeconomic status (ses) in a 9-year population- based cohort study. materi...

I . Numbers of erupted primary teeth were counted in young children in four rural villages in The Gambia. The ages of all children were precisely known, and their heights and weights were measured. 2. The majority of children were recorded as having an even number of teeth. The number of primary teeth present in children of given age varied widely. Up to 18 months of age, the Gambian children l...

A significant body of research evidence (70+ studies) available since the 1940s (Short et al. 1944) suggests that fluoride delays the eruption of teeth, thereby merely delaying the development of cavities. This delay has been reported to be anywhere from several months (Tseng et al, 1989) to 2 years (Campagna et al, 1995). This delay in the onset of caries due to a delay in eruption of teeth wi...

Treatment of a traumatically intruded maxillary incisor with an immature apex remains controversial. Treatment options include observation, surgical repositioning, or orthodontic forced eruption. Likewise, the ideal timing of surgical removal of a mesiodens is highly controversial: immediate versus delayed intervention. The complications associated with untreated supernumerary teeth include: ov...

AIM This was to assess the predictability of eruption of delayed permanent incisors after supernumerary removal and creation of adequate space, in relation to: root maturity, degree of vertical impaction, and degree of angulation of impaction. METHODS The dental records of children with supernumerary teeth delaying the eruption of permanent incisors were analysed. The type of a supernumerary ...

introduction: failure of teeth to erupt from gingival tissues at usual developmental time is called delayed tooth eruption (dte). delayed tooth eruption lead to prolonged fixed orthodontic treatment and its eventual complications. the purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of laser-assisted (808 nm) surgical uncovering, on the tooth emergence and orthodontic treatment of dte. m...

Odontomas, benign tumors that develop in the jaw, rarely erupt into the oral cavity. We report an erupted odontoma which delayed eruption of the first molar. The patient was a 10-year-old Japanese girl who came to our hospital due to delayed eruption of the right maxillary first molar. All the deciduous teeth had been shed. The second premolar on the right side had erupted, but not the first mo...

A broad range of variation exists in the normal eruption times of primary and permanent teeth in humans. However, normality is usually associated with bilateral symmetry. Furthermore, cases where eruption time is grossly beyond the extremes of normalcy may be considered to represent a pathological state [1]. Radiography plays an important part in determining the normality of tooth eruption with...
