Failure of permanent teeth to erupt without any known cause is a rare incident. We report a case of unerupted permanent teeth and make an effort to predict all possible causes of non-eruption of permanent teeth clinically and radiographically. It is essential to diagnose and treat eruption disturbances as early as possible because treatment at a later stage is usually more complicated due to the tendency of malocclusion to increase with time and reduced ability of remaining dentition to adjust.

Abstract


Failure of permanent teeth to erupt without any known cause is a rare incident. We report a case of unerupted permanent teeth and make an effort to predict all possible causes of non-eruption of permanent teeth clinically and radiographically. It is essential to diagnose and treat eruption disturbances as early as possible because treatment at a later stage is usually more complicated due to the tendency of malocclusion to increase with time and reduced ability of remaining dentition to adjust.
