[Cleidocranial dysplasia: review of the literature and presentation of a case].

Cleidocranial Dysplasia, although not frequent, can present to the dentist. In this article, we have reviewed the literature concerning this disease and we present a patient with this condition. An overview of the disease would reveal partial to complete absence of clavicles, delayed closing of cranial fontanels, prolonged retention of deciduous teeth, subsequent delay in eruption of permanent teeth and multiple impactions.

Dental treatment strategies in a 40-year-old patient with cleidocranial dysplasia.

Oral anomalies and dental treatment in a patient with cleidocranial dysplasia (referred to the dental clinic at the age of 40 years) are presented. Five supernumerary teeth were found in the patient: three in the maxilla in the area of molars and two in the mandibula in the area of premolars. Therapy included surgical exposure of impacted teeth in combination with removal of supernumerary teeth.

Localization of the unerupted maxillary canine: how to and when to.

Reasons for localizing impacted maxillary canines are outlined and methods of localization described. The favored method of radiographic localization is the parallax method (image/tube shift method). Tube shifts can be carried out in both the horizontal and the vertical planes. For a horizontal tube shift, two occlusal radiographs are recommended; for a vertical tube shift, a rotational panoramic radiograph and an occlusal radiograph are recommended. This latter combination is usually the combination of choice because the panoramic radiograph, which provides information about all the teeth in both arches, the two jaws, and the surrounding structures, is often taken as an initial radiograph and this combination only requires one additional exposure, the occlusal radiograph. To facilitate the interpretation of a vertical tube shift, the angle of the tube in the occlusal radiograph should be increased from the customary 60 degrees to 65 degrees to 70 degrees to 75 degrees. Less accurate methods of radiographic localization are to use (1) image magnification of the impacted maxillary canines and (2) image superimposition of the impacted maxillary canines on the central or lateral incisor. Reasons why periapical radiographs are not recommended to be used for a horizontal tube shift or for a vertical tube shift in combination with a panoramic radiograph are explained. Indications to suspect palatal impaction may occur in the future if the patient is less than 10 years of age, and indications to suspect impaction may have occurred if the patient is more than 10 years of age are discussed. Patient questionnaires are advocated to aid the clinician in anticipating palatal impaction, the most frequent impaction.

Inverted and impacted maxillary third molar. Report of two cases.

Two cases of inverted and impacted third molars are described. They were conservatively managed without surgery. Complications that may arise from surgical removal of inverted and impacted teeth must be carefully considered beforehand. These should be weighed against the benefit of surgical removal. The two cases are reported because impaction with inversion of a molar tooth is not common.
