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...

introduction dental trauma is one of the most serious oral conditions especially among children. it frequently occurs in children from 6 to 13 years old, often involving teeth with incomplete root formation. the most common dental injury at this age is crown fracture. arguments to provide this clinical guide, pubmed and scopus were searched using the following keywords: immature, incisor and pu...

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...

Transposition may affect both sexes equally and, although it may occur in the maxilla or in the mandible, the frequency of maxillary permanent canine involvement is the greatest [3]. In the maxilla the canine is transposed most frequently with the first premolar (Figure 1a,b), less often with the lateral incisor followed rarely by central incisor or second premolar In the mandible transposition...

Purpose: To establish a new coordinate system using the incisive canal and incisive foramen in cases confirmed to have root resorption in the maxillary incisor region by cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to investigate the positions of the central and lateral incisor roots and erupting maxillary canine tooth crowns in the horizontal plane. Methods: Nine patients (two males; mean age: 10.5 ye...

INTRODUCTION The purposes of this study were to determine the incidence of open gingival embrasures after a single mandibular incisor extraction and to investigate whether age, sex, interproximal pretreatment and posttreatment contact location, or the type of mandibular incisor were predictors of the incidence and magnitude of open gingival embrasures. METHODS Pretreatment and posttreatment i...
