Objective: This retrospective study aims to evaluate the prevalence of dental anomalies in permanent teeth as a result of a trauma concerning the predecessor primary teeth. Study design: A total of 241 records of children (118 males and 123 females, mean age 3.62 ± 1.40) affected by trauma on primary teeth were analyzed. All patients were recalled to evaluate the status of the permanent successor teeth by clinical and radiographic investigations. Results: Out of 241 patients, 106 patients (for a total of 179 traumatized primary teeth) presented at the recall. Dental anomalies on successor permanent teeth were detected in 21 patients (19.8%), for a total of 26 teeth (14.5%) and 28 anomalies. Anomalies of the eruptive process were the most observed disturbances (60.7%), followed by enamel hypoplasia (25%) and white spots (14.3%). A higher percentage of anomalies on permanent teeth was observed when trauma occurred at an age less than 36 months (38.5% of cases). Intrusive and extrusive luxation were related with the most cases of clinical disturbances in the successor permanent teeth. Conclusions: The results of this study highlight the risk of dental anomalies after a trauma in primary dentition, especially in early-aged children and in case of intrusive luxation.

The present case, of a child with an idiopathic immune deficiency and aggressive periodontitis in the primary dentition, serves as an example for the treatment considerations in these cases. Extraction of all the primary teeth proved to be the most adequate treatment. It allowed the child to eat properly and prevented unwanted infections that could endanger the life of the child. The newly erupted permanent teeth have been subjected to careful oral hygiene, clorhexidine topical applications, and have mild gingival inflammation and no attachment loss.

The risk of dental caries seems to be greater in the presence of developmental defects of enamel (DDE). The aim was to determine whether the presence of DDE in the primary teeth of preschool children increases the risk of dental caries in the primary dentition after a period of approximately 2 years. This study was conducted in two stages: baseline (T0) and follow-up (T1). At T0, examinations were conducted for the diagnosis of enamel defects using the DDE index (FDI, 1992), dental caries, and oral hygiene. The participants were allocated to two groups according to the presence (affected) or absence (unaffected) of DDE. At the second evaluation (T1), examinations were performed for the diagnosis of dental caries. Poisson regression analysis with a multilevel approach was used to determine the association between DDE and dental caries. The two levels of the analysis were tooth and child. Among the 339 children (113 affected and 226 unaffected) examined at baseline (T0), 325 were re-examined at follow-up (T1). According to the multilevel analysis, teeth with enamel hypoplasia had a greater risk of having dental caries (RR: 1.99; 95% CI: 1.19–3.33). The risk of caries was greater on posterior teeth (RR: 2.59; 95% CI: 2.18–3.07) and maxillary teeth (RR: 1.48; 95% CI: 1.26–1.75) that had DDE at T0. On the child level, dental caries at T1 was associated with having dental caries at T0 (RR: 1.38; 95% CI: 1.32–1.46). In conclusion, enamel hypoplasia and previous dental caries are risk factors for carious lesions in the primary dentition.

Background: Supernumerary teeth are one of the most common anomalies in the human dentition, found most frequently in the maxillary anterior region causing impaction or displacement of the adjacent permanent teeth. Aim :The purpose of this retrospective study was to determine the prevalence and characteristics of supernumerary teeth in orthodontically treated patients. Study design: Pre-treatment facial and intraoral photographs, study models, panoramic and periapical radiographs of 3,000 consecutively treated orthodontic patients (mean age 12.2 years) from the Department of Orthodontics Tel Aviv University, were examined to detect supernumerary teeth in both arches. They were recorded according to gender, age, number, location, position and morphology. Results: Thirty-six patients, 22 (61%) males and 14 (39%) females with 50 supernumerary teeth, of which 42 (84%) were found in the maxillary anterior region, and 8 (16%) in the mandible, presenting a prevalence of 1.2%. Conclusions: A prevalence of 1.2% was found in our study. The most common supernumerary tooth is mesiodens located at the maxillary anterior region. The characteristics of supernumeraries were based on their morphology, location and position. The most frequent complications caused were rotations, displacement and arrested eruption of maxillary incisors.

AbstractThe enamel defects, hypoplasia and hypo mineralization, are classified as dental anomalies of structure, being frequently found in deciduous and permanent dentitions, since the permanent teeth and second deciduous molars finish their total mineralization after the age of three. The aim of the present study was to identify the presence of hypo mineralization and/or enamel hypoplasia and to associate it with respiratory problems in infant patients. Of the 90 patients evaluated, it was found that 23 male children (57.5%) and 22 female children (44%) had defects in the structure of tooth enamel. Most children were born by cesarean operation (64.4%), with no complications during birth (90.0%), 12.2% of children had dental anomalies (agenesis, ectopic canine, ankylosis, fusion, conoid tooth, and macrodontia, only 7 children showed an association between dental anomalies and enamel defects. Regarding respiratory problems that occurred up to 3 years of age, 38.9% had an episode of asthma, bronchitis, sinusitis, rhinitis, or pneumonia, and 55% had similar results at the current age. There was a positive association (Chi-square tests) between the presence of changes in the structure of tooth enamel and the presence of respiratory problems up to 3 years of age (p <0.001). It is concluded, therefore, that the presence of respiratory problems in early childhood, can interfere in amelogenesis, providing disturbances for the formation of normal enamel, causing defects or irregularities in the surface of the dental enamel, such as hypoplasias and hypo mineralization.

ResumoOs defeitos de esmalte, hipoplasia e hipomineralização, são classificados como anomalias dentárias de estrutura, sendo encontrados com frequência nas dentições decídua e permanente, já que os dentes permanentes e segundos molares decíduos finalizam sua total mineralização após os três anos de idade. O objetivo do presente estudo foi identificar a presença de hipomineralização e/ou hipoplasia de esmalte, e associá-la com problemas respiratórios no paciente infantil. Dos 90 pacientes avaliados, constatou-se que 23 crianças do gênero masculino (57,5%) e 22 do gênero feminino (44%) apresentaram defeitos na estrutura do esmalte dentário. A maioria das crianças nasceu de parto cesária (64,4%), sem complicação no parto (90,0%), 12,2% das crianças apresentaram anomalias dentárias (agenesia, canino ectópico, anquilose, fusão, dente conóide e macrodontia), somente 7 crianças apresentaram associação entre anomalias dentárias e defeitos de esmalte. Em relação à problemas respiratórios ocorrido até aos 3 anos de idade 38,9% apresentaram algum episódio de asma, bronquite, sinusite, rinite ou pneumonia e 55% apresentaram resultados semelhantes na idade atual. Houve associação positiva (Testes Qui Quadrado) entre a presença de alterações na estrutura do esmalte dentário e presença de problemas respiratórios até os 3 anos de idade (p<0,001). Conclui-se, portanto, que a presença de problemas respiratórios na primeira infância, podem interferir na amelogênese, proporcionando distúrbios para formação do esmalte normal, causando defeitos ou irregularidades na superfície do esmalte dentário, como hipoplasias e hipomineralizações.

A mesiodense is a most common supernumerary tooth which is one of the most significant dental anomalies at the primary and early mixed dentition stages. The reported prevalence of mesiodense in general population ranges between 0.15% to 1.9% and more frequently found in the permanent dentition but rarely found in primary dentition. Mesiodense are primarily responsible for eruption disturbances or delay of the maxillary anterior permanent teeth emergence. Therefore the dentists and parents are great concern about malocclusion and esthetic problems which is caused by mesiodense. Early detection, diagnosis and treatment of mesiodense is important to prevent further complications in permanent dentition. A case of mesiodense of 8 years old child in upper anterior region in mixed dentition and their management have been discussed. Update Dent. Coll. j: 2020; 10 (2): 26-28

Luxation cases reportedly occur more frequently in men than in women, and the frequency decreases with increasing age. It is important to know the characteristics of luxation injuries to take preventive measures and early treatments. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate luxation trauma cases in the Turkish population in the West Mediterranean region between 1999 and 2017. Methods: An 18-year retrospective analysis of records of patients with luxation traumas was performed. Data regarding age groups, gender, trauma types, etiologic factors, trauma locations, number of affected teeth, trauma types with/without crown fracture, and time elapsed from trauma onset until clinic visit were determined. Acquired data were tabulated as numbers and percentages. Results: A total of 1597 teeth, from 885 patients, exposed to luxation trauma were included. The number of injured teeth per child was 1.8, and single tooth trauma was the most common type. The number of trauma patient was higher in the 0–5 age group, and the number of cases was higher in the primary teeth of the 0–3 age group and in the permanent teeth of the 8–12 age group. The maxillary central incisors were the most commonly affected teeth, and the most common cause was falls. The luxation types most frequently presenting with crown fracture were lateral luxation in the primary teeth (60%) and subluxation in the permanent teeth (33.9%). The proportion of patients with avulsion was the lowest among those visiting the clinic within 2 days of trauma. Conclusion: This study revealed that almost half of the trauma patients have a history of luxation trauma. Educational programs for the community regarding causes and prevention of luxation traumas should be continued.

ABSTRACT Fusions of teeth and talon cusp are two rare developmental dental anomalies, affecting both primary and permanent dentitions. Both the anomalies are mostly reported as isolated finding and are rarely associated with other dental anomalies. Talon cusp is more common in maxillary anterior teeth in permanent dentition and fusion is commonly reported in mandibular teeth in primary dentition. The concomitant occurrence of talon cusp and fusion is rare and its occurrence in fused mandibular permanent teeth is also rare. This case report presents two unusual cases of concomitant occurrence of talon cusp with fusion in permanent mandibular incisors. The clinical problems associated with these dental anomalies and importance of their management are discussed in these case reports. How to cite this article Goswami M, Jangra B. A Rare Concomitant Occurrence of Talon Cusp in Fused Mandibular Permanent Teeth: Report of Two Cases. Int J Clin Pediatr Dent 2017;10(2):208-212.

The goal of pulp therapy in the primary dentition is to retain the primary tooth as a fully functional part of the dentition, allowing at the same time for mastication, phonation, swallowing, and the preservation of the space required for the eruption of the permanent 1,2 tooth . The premature loss of primary teeth may cause changes in the chronology and sequence of eruption permanent teeth. Maintenance of primary teeth until physiological exfoliation prevents deleterious 3 habits in children .
