Premature loss of permanent dentition from caries, trauma, iatrogenic damage or developmental abnormalities. The tooth of choice to replace a tooth missing in the anterior maxillary region is the maxillary second premolars. Poor prognosis first permanent molars can be replaced with third molars
Molar distalization is a process in the field of Orthodontics which is used to move molar teeth, especially permanent first molars, distally (backwards) in an arch. This procedure is often used in treatment of patients who have Class 2 malocclusion . [ 1 ]
The international notation has a different numbering system than the previous two, and the right permanent mandibular first molar is known as "46", and the left one is known as "36". Mandibular permanent first molars usually have four pulp horns. The first molar is usually the first permanent tooth to erupt at 6–7 years and has adult undertones.
Mandibular teeth erupt in the following order: (1) first molar (2) central incisor, (3) lateral incisor, (4) canine, (5) first premolar, (6) second premolar, (7) second molar, and (8) third molar. Since there are no premolars in the primary dentition, the primary molars are replaced by permanent premolars. [ 48 ]
Molar relationship classification, observed when locating the mesial buccal cusp of the maxillary first molar and buccal groove of the mandibular first molar. (Institute of Dentistry, Aberdeen University) When discussing the occlusion of the posterior teeth, the classification refers to the first molars and may be divided into three categories:
By targeting the USAG-1 gene, researchers believe that they can help people without a full set of teeth regrow teeth. The team says that humans have a third set of teeth available as buds, ready ...
Dental restoration, dental fillings, or simply fillings are treatments used to restore the function, integrity, and morphology of missing tooth structure resulting from caries or external trauma as well as the replacement of such structure supported by dental implants. [1]
The Hall technique can also be used with permanent first molars in some cases where prognosis is poor, such as where first permanent molars are hypomineralised, carious with poor prognosis but to be maintained until full eruption of second molars, or for cuspal coverage of endodontically treated teeth in minors with compliance issues preventing ...
