This study was performed to investigate the age distribution with tooth calcification and degree of eruption of permanent teeth. For the study, healthy 184 patients from 5 to 19 years old without any previous serious dental treatment were randomly selected, and intraoral standard films and dental casts were taken for evaluation of stage of calcification and degree of eruption, respectively. Tooth calcification of 13 stages, designed by the author based on the Nolla's classification and eruption level of 4 or 5 degree was used. Data were processed by SAS/Stat program and the obtained results were as follows; 1. The age of root completed with open apex in lower posterior teeth were 13.8 years for first premolar, 14.0 years for second premolar, 10.5 years for first molar, and 14.2 years for second molar. There were no significant difference between right and left side. 2. As for the sequence of eruption, first molar was the first teeth erupted in upper arch, while central incisor was the first teeth in lower arch. In general, eruption of lower teeth were slightly earlier than the corresponding teeth of upper arch. 3. There were no difference of age of the same stage of development between Nolla's and the author's classification. From the results, the author's classification can be used for estimation of age with more finely in age of 8 to 15 years old. 4. Multiple regression equations for age with Nolla's(Ns) and the author's(Ks) classification of tooth calcification, and degree of eruption(DE) were as follow; Age(by #34) = 7.55 + 0.76Ks34 + 0.80DE34 - 0.72Ns34 Age(by #35) = 7.10 + 0.81Ks35 + 0.6IDE35 Age(by #37) = 6.61 + 0.82Ks37 + 0.5IDE37. Age(by #44) = 7.02 + 0.62Ks44 + 0.82DE44 Age(by #45) = 8.04 + 0.93Ks45 + 0.64DE45 - 0.89Ns45 Age(by #47) = 6.40 + 0.86Ks47 + 0.56DE47.

The eruption of permanent teeth represents the movement in the alveolar bone before appearance in oral cavity, to the occlusal plane after appearance in oral cavity, and additive movement after reaching th the occlusal plane. Tooth eruption is mostly controlled by genetic signals. The eruption stage is divided to preeruptive alveolar stage, alveolar bone stage, mucosal stage according to the process of growth and development. If the disturbance is occured in any stage of eruption, tooth does not erupt. The cause of eruption disturbance are ectopic position of the tooth germ, obstruction of the eruption path and defects in the follicle or PDL. In the treatment of eruption disturbance, surgical procedures are commonly used. There are three kind of surgical procedure ; surgical exposure, surgical repositioning, surgical exposure and traction Surgical exposure is basic procedure. This involves removal of mucosa, bone, lesion that are surrounding the teeth, dental sac when necessary to maintain a patent channel between the crown and the normal eruptive path into the oral cavity. To ensure this patency, many techniques including cementation of a celluloid crown, packing with gutta-percha or zinc oxide-eugenol, or a surgical pack, are used. When surgical exposure is conducted, operators should not expose any part of cervical root cement and not injure periodontium or root of adjunct tooth. After surgical exposure, tooth should be surrounded by keratinized gingiva. There is direct relationship between the extent of development of pathophysiologic aberrations and the intensity of the manipulative injury inflicted on the tooth by surgical treatment, so operator should consider this thing. In these cases, surgical exposure is conducted on Maxillary 1st milars that have a eruption disturbance and improve the eruption disturbance effectively.

The infection of primary teeth occurs by caries or trauma. But, if it is not treated on time, the complication may occur such as enamel hypoplasia, discoloration, impaction, displacement and dilaceration of permanent successors. The periapical lesion on primary tooth could displace the permanent successors in any direction. Treatment options of displaced tooth are observation after extracting the primary teeth, surgical exposure orthodontic traction, transplantation and extraction. In these cases, displacement of permanent central incisor caused by the periapical lesion of primary teeth was observed. The spontaneous eruption after extraction of primary teeth was expected considering degree of displacement, development of root and direction of eruption. This case report shows spontaneous eruption of displaced permanent tooth germ was achieved with periodic examination after extraction of primary teeth.

Impacted teeth are a frequent phenomenon encountered by every clinician. The artificial eruption of embedded teeth is the process of directing an impacted tooth into normal occlusion. This procedure is currently attracting attention, with the aim of finding the best technique to use according to each case. This article presents key information regarding impacted incisors, canines, and premolars. In addition, we describe the most common techniques to use for artificial eruption, the open and closed techniques. We review the literature concerning these techniques and outline how clinicians can manage every type of impacted tooth.

Individual dental age is used as an index of chronological age estimation and is an important indicator of the child's growth stage. Dental age does change greatly over time, but it changes constantly. And updating information about this change is important. The purpose of this study was to provide information about tooth eruption stage using diagnostic model analysis and to investigate tooth eruption sequence and estimate chronological age based on this information. Tooth eruption stages were measured on a diagnostic model from 488 patients in 5 - 13 year old children. Based on the information on eruption stage, eruption sequence in maxilla was first permanent molar, central incisor, lateral incisor, first premolar, canine, second premolar and second permanent molar. Eruption sequence in mandible was first permanent molar, central incisor, lateral incisor, canine, first premolar, second premolar and second permanent molar. There were significant differences between males and females in the eruption stage of canine, first and second premolar, and second molar at several ages. The chronological age of male and female was estimated by the coefficient of determination of 0.816, 0.826 respectively.

Delayed eruption disorders caused by systemic or local conditions are mostly found during childhood and can be treated with orthodontic forced eruption. When the disorder is not found nor treated during childhood, however, orthodontic eruption might become a difficult option while prosthodontic restoration can be considered as an another option. Considerations for the prosthodontic treatment plan include the extent of tooth loss, interdental mesio-distal space and interarch space, and age of the patient. In this case report, oral rehabilitation of the patient with delayed eruption disorder through zirconia partial fixed prostheses for both maxilla and mandible was performed.

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%.

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.

Odontoma represents 22% of all odontogenic tumors, which is characterized by slow growth pattern. Most of the odontomas usually develop during dental follicle proliferation. The growth of odontoma is limited and lesion is generally asymptomatic. It is frequently diagnosed during assessments for delayed eruption of permanent tooth and is usually founded in the second decade of life. Odontoma is usually diagnosed through radiographic views and is difficult to diagnose at the early developmental stage of odontoma. But an uncalcified developing odontoma can disturb the eruption of the tooth, so it is important to perform periodic radiographic examinations. Treatments are surgical removal and observation of odontoma followed by surgical opening or orthodontic traction of impacted tooth according to the tooth development and the location of impacted tooth. In this case, we found the radiopaque calcified odontoma in the radiographic view meanwhile follow up of the impacted tooth showing idiopathic eruption disturbance. This suggests that a developing odontoma is the cause of eruption disturbace.

Dilaceration is most common in maxillary central incisor. Impaction by dilacerated tooth cause orthodontic problem such as tilting of adjacent tooth, midline deviation. Dilaceration is caused by trauma, cyst, other origin and tooth shape, degree of root curvature, location in the alveolar bone, ability of spontaneous eruption should be considered whether treat or not. Labially and lingually dilacerated tooth is difficult to spontaneous eruption. Thus, Prosthetic treatment alternative with extraction, auto transplantation, orthodontic traction with surgical exposure is included within the treatment alternative. These cases are about impacted central incisor with dilacerated root. We use closed eruption technique and guide impacted tooth into normal position by orthodontic traction.
