A developing complex odontome associated with delayed premolar formation.

Delayed development of a bicuspid in the right premolar region of the mandible was observed radiographically in a 16-year-old male patient following surgical removal of a developing odontome. Whilst odontomes are commonly associated with a failure of eruption of permanent teeth, this case was unusual in that there was both failure and marked delay of adjacent permanent tooth germ development, suggesting that the odontome was associated with a regional disturbance of odontogenic tissues in the neonatal period.

The surgical and orthodontic management of unerupted teeth in cleidocranial dysostosis.

A common feature of patients with cleidocranial dysostosis is delayed shedding of deciduous teeth and failure of eruption of the permanent dentition. This article describes a method whereby orthodontic forces may be applied to these unerupted permanent teeth to move them into a satisfactory functional and aesthetic position with good periodontal support whilst maintaining their vitality. This method of treatment avoids the need for overdentures or other prosthetic aids which have often been used in the past.

The function of the disc of the temporomandibular joint.

A study of the structure of the discs of the temporomandibular joints of three mammals showed marked differences among them. Since the animals selected had different basic patterns of mastication, it may be that each disc has become modified to different functions in different mammals.
