ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the eruption of cystic lesion associated impacted permanent teeth(CAIPT)of the jaws after fe-nestrating decompression in adolescents and to analyze the related factors that affect the eruption of CAIPT.Methods:32 cases of CAIPT were examined restrospectively by panoramic radiographs.The subjects were divided into erupted group(n =22),and nonerupt-ed group(n =10).Patient age,angulation of the CAIPT,the cusp depth,eruption space and the level of dental root formation meas-ured on intial panoramic radiograph,were subjected to statistical analysis.Results:The eruption of the impacted mandibular molar was significantly related to the cusp depth,level of dental root formation and the patient's age(P 0.05).Conclusion:The patient's age,angulation of impacted permanent teeth,cusp depth,eruption space,level of dental root formation should be considered in the management of CAIPT.
