Non-eruption of non-ankylosed teeth occurs due to an eruption mechanism that has failed leading to a posterior unilateral/bilateral open bite. [28] Infra occlusion is the primary hallmark of PFE. Primary teeth are most commonly affected and normally all teeth distal to the most mesially affected tooth will show characteristics of this disease.
Other events occur during the bell stage. The dental lamina disintegrates, leaving the developing teeth completely separated from the epithelium of the oral cavity; the two will not join again until the final eruption of the tooth into the mouth. [1] Histologic slide of tooth in late bell stage. Note disintegration of dental lamina at top.
[2] [3] This type of failure of eruption has a genetic or familial background precursor as a cause. The prevalence is of PFE is about 0.06% in population. In this type of failure, teeth that are non-ankylosed fail to erupt in the mouth. These teeth do not have a precursor tooth that is blocking their path.
The tongue, cheeks and lips contribute to the development of ICP by guiding the eruption of the upper and lower teeth and stabilising their positions. [9] Though it may seem automatic that an individual goes from a rest position to ICP, this path of closure is actually a learnt behaviour that is conditioned into short term memory .
As the cells of the reduced enamel epithelium degenerate, the tooth is revealed progressively with its eruption into the mouth. The degeneration of reduced enamel epithelium also mediates the initial epithelial attachment to the tooth, which is called the junctional epithelium. The reduced enamel epithelium consist of: Inner enamel epithelium
The most acknowledged theory for supernumerary teeth is hyperactivity of dental lamina. [6] On completion of the dentition, the dental lamina is usually destroyed and reabsorbed, but when remnants fail to resorb, it can continue to proliferate abnormally. This abnormal proliferation can form the extra tooth bud leading to supernumerary teeth ...
Because of the lack of opposing force and the natural eruptive potential of the tooth there is a tendency for the tooth to erupt out of the line of the occlusion. [citation needed] Not all teeth lacking an opposing tooth overerupt, even in the long term. [2] Unopposed upper jaw molars overerupt more than the unopposed lower jaw molars.
Intraosseous eruption is a stage of tooth eruption that directly precedes the baby tooth emerging from the gums. This stage involves the formation of root of a tooth which allows the tooth to erupt from the bone. It precedes the supraosseous eruption phase which consists of infragingival eruption and supragingival eruption.
