Eruption disturbance is an abnormal state of eruption that occurs over a broad chronologic age range. There are many factors that influence eruption such as premature loss of primary teeth, supernumerary tooth, local disease, tongue, lip, mastication muscle and trauma. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence, patterns and tooth position that have eruption disturbance in children in Seoul, Korea. The subjects were 8,010 new patients who visited the department of Pediatric dentistry of Seoul National University Dental Hospital in 2004-2005. Clinical and radiographic records of the patients were reviewed by the primary investigator who is a pediatric dentist. Notable eruption disturbances included delayed eruption, early eruption and ectopic eruption and the prevalence of eruption disturbance was 8.79%.

Delayed tooth eruption is the most commonly encountered deviation from normal eruption time. Racial, ethnic, sexual, and individual factors can influence eruption and are usually considered in determining the standards of normal eruption. Delayed tooth eruption was affect to the dentition and facial growth, so that when it occurred careful evaluation should be performed to establish the cause and the treatment plan accordingly. Present 3 cases of delayed tooth eruption by periapical lesion, underdevelopment of incisior and compound odontoma were successfully treated. In these cases, we could observe spontaneous eruption of the delayed erupting tooth after removal of interrupting factor and space regaining with maintaining.

The pulp infection of primary tooth is often caused by dental caries or trauma. But, if it is not managed properly, it can be produce the periapical lesion. The periapical lesion can cause some complications such as enamel hypoplasia, displacement, root dilaceration and impaction. Treatment options of displaced permanent successor are clinical and radiological follow-up after extraction of primary teeth, surgical opening, orthodontic traction, transplantation and extraction. In these cases, the premolars with abnormal eruption path caused by periapical lesion of the primary tooth have shown successful spontaneous eruption just as a result of extraction of infected primary tooth and space maintenance.

Early eruption refers to an accelerated eruption of a tooth beyond the normal eruption period. The clinical findings of an early erupted tooth with little formation of crown and/or root include severe mobility, pain on chewing, hypocalcification of the enamel, and inclination, displacement, and rotation of the tooth. The radiographic findings include underdeveloped root and insufficient bone support. Early eruption of a permanent tooth can cause several complications such as chronic trauma, pain, edema, an increased rate of premolar impaction and tooth displacement and/or rotation. Therefore, when a permanent tooth erupts earlier than its normal eruption period with accompanying symptoms, appropriate treatments should be done as soon as possible. A female patient of age 7 without any systemic disease was referred from a local dental clinic with chief complaint of severe mobilities and pain in both upper first premolars. According to the clinical and radiographic examinations, the permanent teeth erupted earlier with barely formed roots, severe mobilities, edema, and pain. This case is to report the successful accomplishment of root formations and stabilization of teeth after applying intraoral fixed appliances using bands and spurs for 14 months.

The purpose of this study was to present the causes and their mechanisms of eruption failure of teeth and to investigate the treatment modalities. There are so many reports about eruption failure, but most of them are dealing with local mechanical interferences. But, we have patients suffered from eruption failure of another causes. Many developmental failures show eruption problems of teeth, although in some cases, the primary failure of eruption (failure of the eruption mechanism itself) can be the primary cause. We have to know about the causes, differences, and the treatment modalities for those abnormalities.

The term 'impaction teeth' is used to designate a tooth which remains unerupted in jaw beyond the time at which it should normally be erupted. Most cases of impacted teeth reported in the literature are permanent teeth. The impaction of primary teeth occur rarely whereas impaction of second primary molars is more numerous than all other impactions. Failure of eruption of primary teeth may cause a number of complications, such as interference with development and eruption of successive permanent teeth, malocclusion, cystic change of tooth follicle. The clinican should consider the various treatment option available (a) No treatment and observation, (b) surgical extraction (c) space regainer. Proper treatment plan should be established after thought consideration of impacted tooth and it's relation with successive permanent tooth.

Exfoliation of the primary teeth and eruption of the permanent teeth is a normal and predictable physiologic process. The accurate prediction of tooth development is of major importance in treatment planning for children. Norms that correspond to the child's age and development have been determined by many investigators. However, there are a variety of factors that may hasten, retard, or otherwise affect the normal developmental process. Among the factors that influence tooth eruption is the premature loss of primary teeth. An abscess of a primary molar, followed by bone resorption and early extraction or exfoliation may lead to premature eruprion of the permanent succesor, and a variety of clinical sequelae. I, hereby present the patients who have prematurely erupted permanent successor in Seoul National University Hospital Pediatric Dentistry, and report the clinical and radiologic characteristics, its sequelae, proper managements, and followed up findings.

A cyst that develops in children's jaw occasionally disturbs the eruption of the succedaneous teeth. These teeth, however, usually have the potential of eruption. So, if the obstacles to eruption are eliminated, it is possible that the teeth erupt spontaneously to their normal position. In those cases, it usually requires the management of the cyst and the eruption guidance of the displaced teeth. Many surgical procedures have been described for the elimination of cysts. When the cyst is large and displaces the permanent teeth, marsupializaion is a surgical technique that may be preferred to enucleation in treatment of cysts. In marsupializaion, if the opening is maintained properly, it may be possible to manage the cyst and guide the displaced teeth into the normal position. In these cases, the cysts were managed with marsupialization in concomittent application of acrylic obturators, and as a result the displaced permanent teeth were guided into normal position. Even though the etiologic factors of the two cases are different, the treatment was the same. And both cases show that the potential for heal ing is remarkable with spontaneous relocation of displaced tooth, provided the opening is maintained during the eruption of the permanent tooth.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the cause of eruption disturbance in the maxillary central incisor and establish the effective treatment plan by analyzing the vertical distance, angulation of long axis and root development of the tooth with eruption disturbance using the cone-beam CT. The average age of 134 patients diagnosed with unilaterally impacted maxillary central incisor was 7.9 years old and the male was 2.1 times higher than the female. The most common cause of eruption disorder was physical obstruction, especially mesiodens and odontoma. Of the teeth with unilateral eruption disorder, 78 cases erupted spontaneously and 56 cases erupted non-spontaneously after removal of physical obstruction. The possibility of spontaneous or non-spontaneous eruption in the unilaterally impacted maxillary central incisor depended on several factors, such as vertical distance, angulation of long axis and root development of unerupted tooth. The spontaneous eruption of the impacted maxillary cental incisor was most frequent at the angulation of long axis of 50 to 90 degrees, which is similar to the angulation of long axis of the normally erupted maxillary central incisor. In addition, the spontaneous eruption period of impacted maxillary central incisor was more influenced by the vertical distance than the angulation of long axis and the root development. Most of the teeth that showed non-spontaneous eruption had orthodontic traction, and these teeth were usually erupted within about 12 months. The period treated with orthodontic traction was no statistical significance with the vertical distance, the angulation of long axis, and the root development. This study will provide information on the cause of unilaterally impacted maxillary cental incisor and help to establish the future treatment plan.
