The ectopic eruption is defined as abnormal eruption which gives to displacement of the teeth and abnormal root resorption of adjacent teeth. The prevalence of ectopic eruption is reported to vary 2~6%, most of them are in the maxilla. Etiologic factors include narrow maxilla, large maxillary teeth, inclined eruption path of the first molar, retruded position of the maxilla and hereditary factor. Irreversible ectopic eruption where the second primary molar is lost often causes mesial tipping and rotation of the permanent molar, unfavorable occlusion and space deficiency for the second premolar. Ectopically erupted teeth should be treated early to maintain normal development of the dentition, harmony of facial growth and occlusal support. The method of the treatment are classified as follows : appliances that is positioned at the contact point for unlocking and the distal movement, fixed appliance that is connected to more than one tooth, and occlusion guiding method after disking or extraction of the second deciduous molar. A case report of a patient with bilaterally ectopic eruption of maxilla and mandible first permanent molar was present. Also, the patient who had experienced the chronic myelogenous leukemia, show various dental developmental complications. The ectopic eruption was treated with a Halterman appliance that was a effective way of correcting of ectopic eruption of the permanent first molar.

The purpose of this study is to determine what influence the lesion and the premature loss of mandibular 1st deciduous molar have on the eruption of its successor, and the author devided 580 cases of orthopantomograms from age 3 to 9 years old children into 3 groups: Control Group: both side normal Study I Group: one normal and the other lesion. Study II Group: one normal and the other premature loss before 8 years old. and observed the amount of differences and the relative position in eruption between study-tooth successor and normal-tooth successor, The following results were obtained: 1. The differences in eruption between right and left mandibular 1st primary molars of Study Group were greater than those of Control Group. 2. The successors of lesioned-teeth showed more accelerated eruption than the antimeres in 40.9% and more delayed, in 22.7%. 3. The successors of premature lost-teeth showed more accelerated eruption than the antimeres in 61.7% and more delayed, in 4.3%.

Dentigerous cyst is an odontogenic cyst which occurs in unerupted tooth crown. After the crown formation, enamel epithelium remnants surrounded continuously proliferates and it forms effusionfluid cyst and expands due to increased internal osmotic pressure. Treatments of cysts are mainly enucleation, marsupialization and de-compression. When deciding the way of treatment, the age of a patient, the anatomical circumstances, the region of lesion and the size of cyst should be considered. Marsupialization is that some parts of internal cystic wall would be converted into oral mucosa if the cyst is large size and is concerned about neighboring anatomic structure. It can be accompanied by enucleation later and eruption of related tooth can be possible. If there is a limitation of spontaneous tooth eruption, eruption of tooth can be induced by orthodontic apparatus. There were 3 patients had dentigerous cyst and underwent marsupialization, their impacted teeth had preserved and had induced eruption, all showing satisfactory results.

The purpose of this study was to finding out the relationship between the tooth calcification and eruption of the mandibular permanent teeth in Korean. This study was undertaken in 592 children at ages from 3 to 13 years who had good oral condition by means of panoramic roentgenographic analysis. The following results were obtained. 1. The mean ages of crown completion were as follows; Canine 1st. Premolar 2nd. Premolar 1st. Molar Male 6yrs. 4mos. 6yrs. 8mos. 7yrs. 6mos. 7yrs. 6mos. Female 5yrs. 11mos. 6yrs. 5mos. 7yrs. 2mos. 3yrs. 3mos. 2. Each tooth started to move toward occlusion at approximately stage 6 or after crown completion. 3. The highest increment in eruption rate was at about 1/3~1/2 completion of root and ages at 10-11 years in male, 9-10 years in female. 4. Eruption period of both sexes were as follows; Canine: 6-12years 1st. Premolar: 7-12 years 2nd. Premolar: 7-13 years 1st. Molar: 3-7 years 5. The eruption was completed before the root completion. 6. The sequence of eruption and calcification was 1st. Molar-Canine-1st. Premolar-2nd. Premolar in both sexes.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to examine the radiographic features associated with impacted premaxillary supernumerary teeth, to determine the relationship between their characteristics and their effects on permanent incisors, and to investigate the types of orthodontic treatment that patients received after the extraction of impacted supernumerary teeth. Materials and Methods: The clinical records and radiographs of 193 patients whose impacted premaxillary supernumerary teeth were removed were retrospectively reviewed, and 241 impacted supernumerary teeth were examined. Cone-beam computed tomographic images and panoramic radiographs were examined to determine the number, location, sagittal position, orientation, and morphology of the supernumerary teeth. Their effects on permanent incisors and the orthodontic treatment received by patients after the extraction of the supernumeraries were also investigated. Results: Supernumerary teeth were most frequently observed in the central incisor region, in the palatal position, in the inverted orientation, and were most commonly conical in shape. The most common complication was median diastema, followed by displacement and delayed eruption of the adjacent incisors. Ten (71.4%) of the 14 odontomas showed delayed eruption of the adjacent incisors. Displacement of the incisors was more frequently observed in association with supernumerary teeth with tuberculate or supplemental shapes. Orthodontic traction was most frequently performed after the removal of odontomas. In 32 cases (13.3%), permanent incisors erupted after the orthodontic creation of sufficient space. Conclusion: Median diastema was most common complication. The delayed eruption of incisors was common in supernumerary teeth with a vertical orientation and an odontoma shape.

The impacted teeth were surgically exposed by the closed-eruption technique and orthodontically retracted. The subject of this study are 24 patients(Mx. insiors; 10 Mx. canines; 14) who finished their treatment. The periodontal condition of the impacted teeth and the normally erupted proximal and opposed teeth were compared and analysed. The results are the followings ; 1. When the gingival index, plaque index, pocket depth and attached gingiva in periodontal evaluation were compared, there was no significant difference between the study group and the control group (P>0.05). 2. When the alveolar bone support of the mesial and the distal surface of the maxillary central incisors and proximal teeth was compared, there was no significant difference between the study group and the control group (P<0.05). 3. When the alveolar bone support of the maxillary canines was compared, there was no significant difference between the retracted teeth and the normally erupted teeth(P>0.05). The results above showed that the surgical exposure by closed-eruption technique followed by the orthodontic retraction of the impacted teeth has a positive influence on the regeneration of gingival tissue in clinical practice and is esthetically more stable. And it is considered that the clinicians should give attention to the direction of retraction power and the maintenance of normal shape of the alveolar bone in treatment of maxillary central incisors.

This report presents a case of adolescent patient who had multiple impacted teeth and no systemic disease, and was treated with removable and fixed orthodontic appliances. The results obtained through these cases were summarized as follows : 1. Even in the case without systemic disease, there can be the delayed eruption of multiple teeth 2. If the root formation is not completed, root have no excessive curvature, axial inclination of the tooth is not excessive, and there is eruption space, the tooth can be induced to normal occlusion. 3. Since esthetically proper occlusion and dentition was acquired by recovery of the impacted teeth to normal occlusion, the prosthodontic treatment after extraction of the impacted teeth was less needed. 4. This treatment brought psychological stability to pubertal patient who was interested in his facial profile.

Odontomas generally appear as small, solitary, or multiple radio-opaque lesions found on routine radiographic examinations. It is a comparatively common odontogenic tumor, and may lead to interfere with the eruption of its associated tooth. In general, odontomas occur more often in permanent dentition and are very rarely associated with primary teeth. This report deals with five rare cases of primary teeth impaction associated with odontomas, with spontaneous eruption occurring in all five cases after simple surgical removal of the odontoma. Impacted primary teeth may be associated with defects in development and eruption of their permanent successors, and thus long-term observation is necessary until the permanent successors erupt.

This study was undertaken to obtain the data age determination following the eruption of individual cusps of the first molars in the point of forensic odontology. 532 children (294 male and 238 female, born between April, 1989 and March, 1986) from a kindergarten and a primary school in a reesidential district in Seoul were studied. The eruption state of the first molar was divides into 6 stages according to the degree of exposure of individual cusps, and correlation between the stage and age was stastically analysed. The results of the study lead to following conclusions : 1. The most frequently seen eruption sequence of cusps for the upper first molar was mesibuccal cusp, mesiopalatal cusp, distobuccal cusp, mesiodistal cusp, distopalatal cusp. As for the lower first molar : mesiobuccal cusp, mcsiolingual cusp, distobuccal cusp, distolingual cusp. 2. The time of eruption was earlier in the female ethan in the male, but it was stastically remarkable only in upper and lower parts of the right and the left teeth of subjects age between 6.0 and 6.5 and upper part of the right and the left teeth of subjects age over 7.5 3. The eruption of the lower first molar was comparatively earlier than that of the upper first molar and there was no significant stastical difference between the right and the left first molars in the time of eruption. 4. There was no noticeable difference in the eruption sequence of cusps, irrespective of sex and side. 5. The eruption of the upper first molar is started at the age of about 6.4 and complete the age of about 7.1 and as for the lower first molar, it is from 6.3 to 7.0

Objective : To report eruption of maxillary canine through Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ graft in patients with secondary bone-grafted alveolar clefts. Methods : Secondary alveolar bone grafts placed in the cleft alveolar defect have been shown to support dental eruption through the graft and may further affect the prevalence of impacted teeth. As the case may be, it could be difficult to do secondary alveolar bone graft with autologous bone. In particular, few reports have been shown the secondary bone graft with heterogenous bone(Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$). In this report, the eruption of canine into bone-grafted alveolar clefts was recorded as panoramic, occlusal radiographs, in 3 patients grafted with Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ Results : Like autologous bone graft, the canine was erupted and developed into the cleft alveolar defect through Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ graft. Conclusion : In some cases that autologous bone graft is not available, we can consider heterogenous bone graft into the cleft alveolar defect for dental development and eruption of impacted teeth.
