Supernumerary primary teeth and the clinical significance: a report of two cases [PDF]
Supernumerary teeth occur frequently in the permanent dentition but they are rare in the primary dentition. Supernumerary teeth in the primary dentition usually erupt normally and are frequently of the supplemental type. The issue of differentiating the

Concrescent triplets involving primary anterior teeth
Odontogenesis is a complex process wherein more than 200 genes are known to play a significant role in tooth development. An imbalance can lead to an abnormality in the number, size, shape or structure of the developing tooth/teeth.

Bilateral fusion in primary mandibular teeth
Fusion has been described as a developmental anomaly characterized by the union of two adjacent teeth. Few cases of this rare anomaly in primary dentition have been reported in Indian population. A rare case of bilateral fusion between primary mandibular

The Epidemiology, Aetiology, and Histopathology of Developmental Enamel Defects in Human Teeth [PDF]
PhDThe prevalence of developmental enamel defects in t11 permanent dentition was investigated in a sample of 2923 East London schoolchildren aged 5 to 15 years. Enamel discolourations and hypoplasias were identified using well defined criteria.

The Role of Amelogenin Protein in the Development of Human Primary Teeth [PDF]
Background: Tooth development involves reciprocal interactions between the oral epithelium and ectomesenchyme. The inner layer cells of the enamel organ (EO), known as the inner enamel epithelium (IEE), undergo differentiation into preameloblasts and ...

Root canal obturation of primary teeth: Disposable injection technique
The aim of the study was to outline a simple, cost-effective technique for obturation of primary tooth root canals. A total of 75 primary teeth were treated in 52 subjects by the technique discussed, i.e. injecting plastic flowable material into the root
