The treatment experience of primary eruption failure of a case / 实用口腔医学杂志

Primary failure of eruption(PFE) is an unusual dental disease.Clinically,it is difficult to distinguish PFE from Mechanical failure of eruption (MFE),and the diagnosis is especially challenging since misdiagnosis and mistreatment always take place.The present paper reports the treatment experience of a case of PFE.

Eruption failure of teeth / 대한치과교정학회지

The purpose of this study was to present the causes and their mechanisms of eruption failure of teeth and to investigate the treatment modalities. There are so many reports about eruption failure, but most of them are dealing with mechanical interferences. But, we have patients suffered from eruption failure of another causes. Many developmental failures show eruption problems of teeth, although in some cases, the primary failure of eruption (failure of the eruption mechanism itself) can be the primary cause. We have to know about the causes, differences, and the treatment modalities for those abnormalities.

Posterior open bite / 대한치과교정학회지

The purpose of this report is to present the cause and treatment of posterior open bite. Posterior open bite is the open bite limited to posterior teeth. These problem usually are attributed to a mechanical interference with the eruption process, either ankylosis or some soft tissue interference. But, in some patient, lateral open bite is due to a disturbance of the eruptive mechanism itself and other disease or side effect following other treatment. Distinguishing cause of posterior open bite, lack of eruption due to some external interference with eruption or primary failure of eruption mechanism, is important clinically because this determines the prognosis for orthodontic treatments. The characteristics, differential diagnosis with posterior open bite due to other etiologies and the treatment of these problems are presented and discussed.
