[Complications of injuries to deciduous teeth].

The traumatisms of the temporary teeth are very frequent. They are bound to the acquirement of the march, to the games, to the sport and to the accidents of the public way. Favoured by the presence one improved proalveoly, they constitute a dental emergency of makes some important risks of complications. Indeed, these traumatisms, in case of belated conference and/or of maladjusted treatment or conducted pain, could induce some complications and have some aesthetic and functional after effects on the dental germ underlying. Some of these complications observed in some patients are stakes in evidence by some iconographic illustrations.

[Supernumerary teeth in the deciduous dentition].

The Authors presented sovrannumeraries (S) teeth in primary dentition, and the pedodontic, surgical and orthodontic problems. Semeiotics signs, and X Ray suggested, are described. All the types of S. teeth are showed: supplementaries, conoides, tuberculates and infundibuliformes. For every type characteristics, problems and surgical timing are described. Tuberculates and infundibuliformes teeth are the most dangerous for the permanent teeth interrupted: eruption delay, dilacerations, impactions, fusion, follicles, diseases, are reported. The direction of the growth of S. teeth must be analyzed. If the direction is external the timing of surgery is very important. Finally the Authors emphasized the role of cooperation of pedodontist, with oral surgeon and orthodontist for to obtain good results.

Dental pulp lipids from Bos taurus during odontogenesis.

During the fetal development of the dental pulp, the various lipid classes show no substantial differences in their relative ratios but differences occur between deciduous and permanent teeth. By chromatography, the amount of free cholesterol was found decreased in deciduous and permanent teeth as compared to fetal teeth. Esterified cholesterol increased in permanent teeth and triglyceride levels were high only in developing permanent teeth. Phosphatidylcholine, sphingomyelin and phosphatidylserine were present in higher concentration in permanent unerupted teeth, while phosphatidylethanolamine was at first constant but then decreased during development in the permanent unerupted teeth. These data suggest that lipid changes are related to the assembly of plasma membranes and to the establishment of the innervation during ontogeny and postnatal development of dental pulp.

Coronal dentinal tubules of non-erupted deciduous incisors.

The diameter and density of coronal dentinal tubules were assessed in non-erupted human deciduous incisors. Using liquid nitrogen, frozen samples were fractured in longitudinal and oblique directions and observed by means of a Jeol JSM-6100 scanning electron microscope. It was observed that the diameter of dentinal tubules ranged from 0.50 to 1.94 micrometers and increased significantly from the outer to the inner layers. However, comparing the incisal, middle and cervical thirds, no statistically significant differences were observed. The number of tubules per square millimeter varied from 3,281 to 32,313 and also increased from the external dentinal surface to the dentinal surface of the pulp chamber.

Dental anomalies in patients with familial and sporadic cleft lip and palate.

Based on the frequency of occurrence of cleft lip and palate (CLP) in a family, a distinction has been made between familial and sporadic CLP. It was presumed that the genetic predisposition in familial CLP is high, while in sporadic CLP environmental factors play an important role. This study describes the possible relationship between the incidence of dental anomalies and the genetic predisposition of CLP in both the deciduous and permanent dentition. Dental anomalies were studied in 100 CLP patients and 38 control subjects. Neither the number of dental anomalies, nor the numbers of missing and supernumerary teeth differed significantly between familial and sporadic cases. A comparison between subjects with and without CLP showed a significant difference in the morphology of the dentition of the upper jaw. This difference was quantitative rather than qualitative. This study indicates a direct relationship between cleft formation and formation of the teeth, irrespective of the genetic predisposition and the severity of the cleft (i.e. uni- or bilateral).

Autosomal recessive rough hypoplastic amelogenesis imperfecta. A case report with clinical, light microscopic, radiographic, and electron microscopic observations.

A case is presented of a 12-year-old Japanese girl with nearly complete lack of enamel in the deciduous and the permanent dentitions, coupled with a gross abnormality in the pattern of eruption. There was no family history of a similar condition. Deciduous molars were extracted, and hyperplastic gingival tissue was resected. On the basis of clinical, radiographic, and microscopic findings, a diagnosis of autosomal recessive rough hypoplastic amelogenesis imperfecta was made. The configuration of the abnormal enamel was examined with scanning and transmission electron microscopy as well as with light microscopy. Prismatic structure was virtually absent, and the scant enamel showed globular protrusions superficially. Two different surface structures were identified as covering parts of the enamel. At the ultrastructural level, calcified bodies located in the gingival tissue appeared to be composed, in part, of a dense enamel-like substance and, in part, of a tissue with features of afibrillar cementum.

[A case report of supernumerary deciduous teeth with the permanent successor in the maxillary region].

We found pure primary supernumerary teeth in the maxillary right deciduous incisor region of a 3 year 11 month old girl. We reported the results of her oral and X-ray analysis results. We would like to report our findings on the results of her oral and X-ray analysis. 1) Two of the primary supernumerary teeth were found between the incisor and canine teeth in the right side of the primary dental arch, and their color, form and size were very similar to normal primary lateral incisor teeth. 2) We also found pure secondary supernumerary teeth by means of X-ray analysis. 3) We suggest that the permeability of the X-ray is important for the ascertainment of both primary and secondary supernumerary teeth by mean of X-ray analysis.

A case of hyperodontia with twenty-two supernumeraries: its surgical-orthodontic treatment.

A 10.1-year-old boy showed no permanent teeth, with the exception of the lower central incisors. An x-ray examination revealed that eruption of the permanent dentition was obstructed by 1 deciduous supernumerary and 22 permanent supernumeraries ectopically. Treatment consisted of the following steps: (1) extracting all deciduous and supernumerary teeth; (2) waiting for the roots of the permanent teeth to develop and fitting two temporary partial prostheses; (3) assisting eruption of the permanent teeth by removing the bone that covers the remaining teeth and applying crowns to stimulate the eruption; and (4) bringing the permanent teeth into occlusion with orthodontic treatment. The problem of limiting treatment time was made more difficult by the amount of repositioning needed to bring the teeth into occlusion and by delayed root formation. Therefore the orthodontist decided to use extreme caution in applying forces; as a result, treatment time was lengthened. Success was due to good teamwork between the surgeon with an orthodontic background and the orthodontist, who was familiar with surgical procedures.

Isolated soft tissue cleft lip: the influence on the nasal cavity and supernumerary laterals.

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this investigation was to estimate the vertical deviation of the nasal floor and to register dental disturbances (i.e., hypo- and hyperdontia) in patients with an isolated soft tissue cleft lip. DESIGN: Thirty patients with isolated cleft lips were randomly selected from the files of the Department of Maxillo-Facial Surgery and Jaw Orthopedics. As a matched control group, 30 patients were selected from the files of the Department of Orthodontics. Panoramic radiographs were analyzed and the lowest point of the floor of the left and right nasal cavity was measured to the nearest 0.5 mm. The presence of supernumerary (deciduous or permanent) or missing lateral incisors was recorded from the patient's journals. RESULTS: The vertical position of the nasal floor differed significantly between the cleft and the non-cleft side (p < 0.001). Supernumerary, deciduous, and permanent laterals were recorded in 73% of the subjects in the cleft lip group (22 patients). In the control group, no differences were found between the position of the nasal floor on the left and right side and no supernumerary laterals were recorded. Missing laterals were not noted in any of the individuals investigated. CONCLUSIONS: Isolated cleft lips were in most cases associated with: (1) lowering of the nasal floor on the cleft side and (2) supernumerary primary or permanent lateral incisors on the cleft side. Panoramic radiographs can be used to detect differences in the vertical position of the floor of the nasal cavity in patients with isolated cleft lips and to diagnose supernumerary laterals.

Structure and microstructure of coronary dentin in non-erupted human deciduous incisor teeth.

The dentin structure of non-erupted human deciduous mandibular and maxillary central and lateral incisor teeth was studied employing light and scanning electron microscopy. For light microscopy, nitric-acid-demineralized and ground sections were used. The sections were stained by hematoxylin-eosin, picrosirius and azo-carmine methods, and ground specimens were prepared using a carborundum disk mounted in a handpiece. For SEM study, teeth were frozen in liquid nitrogen and fractured at longitudinal and transversal directions. Structurally, demineralization and ground methods revealed tubules with primary and secondary curvatures, canaliculi, giant tubules, interglobular dentin, predentin, and intertubular dentin. Scanning electron microscopy showed three-dimensional aspects of dentinal tubules, canaliculi, peritubular dentin, intertubular dentin, and predentin. This study contributes to knowledge about dentin morphology showing characteristics of teeth not yet submitted to mastication stress.

The impacted maxillary canine. Further observations on aetiology, radiographic localization, prevention/interception of impaction, and when to suspect impaction.

Adjacent anomalous or missing maxillary lateral incisors have been implicated in the aetiology of palatally displaced canines by not providing proper guidance to the canine during its eruption. However, a recent review of the literature suggests that the aetiology of palatally displaced canines is genetic in origin. The aetiology of labially impacted canines differs, being due to inadequate arch space. Vertex occlusal radiographs have been recommended for localization but have limitations, and a case is illustrated where this radiograph is deceptive. The prevention/interception of a palatally displaced canine by the extraction of the deciduous canine is best carried out as early as the displacement is detected, mostly soon after 10 years of age. Usually, prevention/interception will avoid the surgical and orthodontic treatment needed to align a palatally impacted canine and may help prevent resorption of the adjacent incisor root. Suspicions that an impaction could occur or has occurred arise a) before the age of 10 years if there is a familial history and/or the maxillary lateral incisors are anomalous or missing; b) after the age of 10 years if there is asymmetry in palpation or a pronounced difference in eruption of canines between the left and right side; or the canines cannot be palpated and occlusal development is advanced; or, the lateral incisor is proclined and tipped distally; and, on a panoramic radiograph of the late mixed dentition if the incisal up of the canine overlaps the root of the lateral incisor.

[Numerical anomaly of teeth in mongrel juvenile dogs. Canis familiaris].

As this study subjects, upper and lower dentitions of 49 mongrel dogs were used. X-ray films of the upper and lower dentitions of the dogs were taken. These films were from the collection of the Department of Pedodontics, School of Dentistry, Aichi-Gakuin University. Although the data on the sex and age of the dogs were not available, the dental ages were judged to range from the deciduous dentition to the early mixed dentition. Molars were not dealt with in this study for two reasons: 1) the molars of many of the subjects had not yet been calcified, and 2) the upper second and/or lower third molars, if present, had frequently been sacrificed when the jaws were separated. Numerical anomalies were observed in 16 dogs (32.7%). And infranumerary teeth were observed in 14 dogs (26.8%). Incidences of infranumerary teeth were higher in the secondary dentitions than in the primary ones. Most of the infranumerary teeth were found in both the upper and lower premolars, but not in the upper incisors and the upper and lower canines. Infranumerary teeth often occurred symmetrically whereas supernumerary teeth occurred asymmetrically. This investigation suggests that tendency of the reduction of the upper third premolar was considered to be caused by the reduction of the maxilla through the process of domestication. These results are inconsistent with Fujita's terminal reduction theory.

Mineralized nodule formation by cultures of human dental pulp-derived fibroblasts.

Pulp fibroblasts were isolated from human deciduous and supernumerary teeth and cultured in vitro. With continued culture in normal tissue-culture medium, six pulp fibroblast strains formed cell nodules after 10-15 days. By electron microscopy the nodules had matrix vesicles, and needle-shaped crystals associated with a dense network of collagen fibrils. The crystalline material exhibited a pattern consistent with hydroxyapatite when nodules were examined by X-ray diffractometry. Furthermore, the cells showed high levels of alkaline phosphatase activity, which could be increased more than seven-fold by the addition of 1,25(OH)2D3 (5 x 10(-9)-5 x 10(-8) M). In addition to the production of type I collagen, these cells also synthesized fibronectin and osteonectin. The formation of mineralized tissue nodules by pulp cells in vitro provides a useful system for study of the pathological calcification of pulp tissues.

A role for TNF in bone resorption of deciduous molars in human beings.

In this study, tumor necrosis-alpha was sampled from the gingival crevice of human deciduous molars; this was compared with values measured from the crevice of those deciduous molars missing a permanent successor, and from the crevice of deciduous ankylosed molars. Tumor necrosis-alpha was harvested from the gingival crevice with magnetic microspheres coated with tumor necrosis-alpha antibodies. The amount of bead-bound tumor necrosis-alpha was quantified with the use of an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. One hundred seven sites (from 41 patients) were sampled; for each patient, the normal value was compared with either the molars missing a permanent successor or ankylosed value. The tumor necrosis-alpha levels were 1.6 times higher from the crevice of ankylosed deciduous molars when compared with normal deciduous molars and 2.6 times higher from the crevice of sites with a molar missing a permanent successor. The mean and standard error mean distribution of tumor necrosis-alpha expressed as picograms was: normal molars 91 pg (standard error mean +/- 20), ankylosed molars 150 pg (standard error mean +/- 31), and missing permanent successor 236 pg (standard error mean +/- 67). Analysis of variance showed the difference among the 3 means was close to attaining significant difference (F [2.104] = 2.7905, P =.066). Multiple comparison procedures indicated that the mean for molars missing a permanent successor and the normal groups were significantly different, P =.05. The results of this study suggest tumor necrosis-alpha values are elevated in the gingival crevice of deciduous molars with ankylosis and where the permanent tooth bud is congenitally missing.
