Odontomas are the most common odontogenic tumours. They are usually asymptomatic and are often discovered during routine radiography. We report a case of a large erupting complex odontoma that caused pain, infection and facial asymmetry. This case is significant as there are few reports of complex odontoma erupting in the oral cavity.

Aims. To investigate several partially-erupting prominences to study their relationship with other CME-associated phenomena and to compare these observations with observables predicted by a model of partially-expelled flux ropes (Gibson & Fan, 2006a, b). Methods. We have studied 6 selected events with partially-erupting prominences using multi-wavelength observations recorded by the Extremeultr...

A fully bonded m~dtiloop wire appliance for the correction of ectopically erupting permanent molars is described. The appliance allows control in the anteroposterior, vertical, and transverse planes. Ectopically erupting first permanent molars are seen in about 3% of the population.~,2 Sixty-six per cent of ectopically erupting maxillary first permanent molars self-correct by jumping over the i...

he problem and treatment of the ectopically erupting permanent first molar have been addressed by many authors1'9 since they were first men­ tioned in the literature by Chapman10 in 1923. This paper presents a simple and effective technique for the treat­ ment of ectopically erupting perma­ nent first molars. A modification of this technique is also presented that uses instruments and materials...
