[Classification and etiopathogenesis of upper canine impaction].

Classification and aetiopathogenesis of upper canine inclusion. The possible causes of upper canine inclusions are reviewed. After a detailed description of the factors that generally contribute to determining inclusions, it is stressed that correct aetiopathogenetic classification of this pathology can contribute to making the complex protocol for its treatment easier.

Management of an impacted, dilacerated mandibular left permanent first molar: a case report.

A case of an unerupted mandibular left permanent first molar, a partially erupted permanent second molar, and a congenitally absent third molar in a 12-year-old girl is described. The permanent first molar, being dilacerated and impacted, required surgical exposure of the crowns of the first and second molars and distalization of the second molar, with the help of a space regainer, to bring the molars into occlusion.

Chondroectodermal dysplasia (Ellis-van Creveld syndrome): report of two cases.

Our two patients with chondroectodermal dysplasia had most of the classic manifestations of the syndrome. The simultaneous occurrence of partial anodontia and embedded supernumerary and second premolars in the mandible in one patient was interesting. The inverted impaction of the left maxillary lateral incisor is also a unique finding. The median fissure on the tongue may be an associated developmental anomaly of the syndrome.

Do teeth want to be straight? A nonsurgical approach to unerupted teeth.

Although some orthodontists believe that ectopic labially positioned canines may erupt without surgical exposure, many articles emphasize the surgical management of the nonpalatally impacted canine. In this article, the author discusses the treatment and results of 3 cases, with a total of 4 impacted maxillary canines. All cases were treated with a conservative approach and without surgical intervention. This nontraumatic, nonsurgical approach demonstrates the viability of conservative options for the management of unerupted teeth in carefully selected cases.

The eruption tendency and changes of direction of impacted teeth following surgical exposure.

Surgical exposure may be an integral part of orthodontic treatment of impacted teeth. In some cases the surgical procedure alone results in eruption and alignment of such teeth. The nature of the mechanism that starts concomitantly with the removal of covering tissues is not known. The aim of this investigation was to study factors associated with eruption as well as the eruption route of impacted and unerupted teeth following surgical exposure. The material consisted of 542 impacted teeth in 389 patients. The findings given strong support to the hypothesis that forces within surrounding tissues act upon the exposed crown in such a way as to direct it toward the area where the tissues were removed.

Maxillary anterior displacement and impaction in the mixed dentition.

Attention has been given to problems of eruption in the maxillary anterior region. It is a region where a variety of anomalies occur. Since the maxillary anterior region influences appearance so greatly, early detection of difficulties and careful planning and treatment can be extremely beneficial to patients.

Analysis of the morbidity of submerged deciduous molars: the use of imaging techniques.

A case is presented of a 13-year-old patient who had a class I occlusion on a class I skeletal base but with a retained and submerged deciduous molar causing impaction of the second premolar. Diagnostic imaging illustrates the potential challenges of the removal of the retained deciduous molar. Magnetic resonance imaging used to identify the path of the inferior alveolar neurovascular bundle clearly delineates its intimate association with the impacted teeth and underscores the risk of trauma during extraction. This is discussed with regard to other cases of submerged molars, and a strategy is outlined.
