  2. Impacted wisdom teeth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impacted_wisdom_teeth

    Completely unerupted wisdom teeth usually result in no symptoms, although they can sometimes develop cysts or neoplasms. Partially erupted wisdom teeth or wisdom teeth that are not erupted but are exposed to oral bacteria through deep periodontal pocket, can develop cavities or pericoronitis. Removal of impacted wisdom teeth is advised for the ...

  3. Wisdom tooth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wisdom_tooth

    About a third of symptomatic unerupted wisdom teeth have been shown to partially erupt and be non-functional or non-hygienic. Studies have also shown that 30% to 60% of people with previously asymptomatic impacted wisdom teeth will have an extraction of at least one of them in 4 to 12 years from diagnosis. [42]

  4. Tooth impaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tooth_impaction

    Most often, the cause of impaction is inadequate arch length and space in which to erupt. That is the total length of the alveolar arch is smaller than the tooth arch (the combined mesiodistal width of each tooth). The wisdom teeth (third molars) are frequently impacted because they are the last teeth to erupt in the oral cavity.

  5. Tooth eruption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tooth_eruption

    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.

  6. Dentigerous cyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dentigerous_cyst

    Relative incidence of odontogenic cysts. [1] Dentigerous cyst is labeled at top right. A dentigerous cyst, also known as a follicular cyst, is an epithelial-lined developmental cyst formed by accumulation of fluid between the reduced enamel epithelium and the crown of an unerupted tooth.

  7. Pericoronitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pericoronitis

    Pericoronitis is often associated with partially erupted and impacted mandibular third molars (lower wisdom teeth), [4] often occurring at the age of wisdom tooth eruption (15-26). [ 5 ] [ 6 ] Other common causes of similar pain from the third molar region are food impaction causing periodontal pain, pulpitis from dental caries (tooth decay ...
