Dentigerous cyst associated with a deciduous tooth

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1992
A case of a dentigerous cyst associated with a deciduous tooth in a 2-year-old boy is presented. Radiologic examination revealed a well-defined radiolucency in the right maxilla associated with the crown of a maxillary second deciduous molar. The cyst cavity was lined with nonkeratinized squamous epithelium, and odontogenic epithelial islands were seen

Reimpaction of Deciduous Tooth: Report of Case

The Journal of the American Dental Association, 1972
A completely reimpacted deciduous tooth in an adult patient contained an occlusal restoration. The presence of the restoration indicated that this tooth had once been erupted. Removal of the tooth confirmed that it was ankylosed.

The Diagnosis and Management of Infraoccluded Deciduous Molars: A Systematic Review

Children
The infraocclusion (IO) of primary molars, often seen in retained deciduous teeth, is a common condition that presents significant challenges for pediatric oral health.

Allometry, merism, and tooth shape of the upper deciduous M2 and permanent M1.

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 2014
The aims of this study were to investigate the effect of allometry on the shape of dm(2) and M(1) crown outlines and to examine whether the trajectory and magnitude of scaling are shared between species.

The origin of tooth number of the human deciduous dentition: a hypothesis

Medical Hypotheses, 1988
The constant number of 5 teeth per quadrant in the human deciduous dentition is seen to be a result of the mitotic activity within the dental lamina which leads to a constant number of centers in which cells are compressed together. These centers in which, due to the compression, the cells become narrow and cylindrical and, due to subsequent bulging ...

Heritability of deciduous tooth size in Australian aboriginals

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1980
AbstractThe contributions of genetic and evironmental influences to observed variability of deciduous tooth size were quantified in a group of Australian aboriginals. Phenotypic variability was partitioned into four components; between sides, between fathers, between mothers, and between offspring.

Deciduous tooth crown size in prematurely born children

Early Human Development, 2003
The purpose of our study was to examine deciduous tooth crown size in preterm children.The subjects consisted of 328 prematurely born (< 37 gestational weeks) white and black children and 1804 controls, who participated in the cross-sectional study of the Collaborative Perinatal Project (USA) in the 1960s and 1970s.

A note on the variation in the timing of deciduous tooth eruption

Journal of Dentistry, 1975
A survey was carried out on the timing of deciduous tooth eruption based upon 3600 Caucasian children in three heterogeneous samples from Birmingham, Sheffield and Gloucester and a small more or less homogeneous sample from Biddulph (North Staffordshire).

The natural history of deciduous tooth attrition in hominoids

Journal of Human Evolution, 1991
Abstract The degree of attrition on the mandibular deciduous teeth of 35 great apes, between 6 months and 5 years of age, was recorded by direct observation of each tooth. Specimens of Gorilla show markedly advanced attrition in relation to specimens Pan or Pongo of similar age.

Testing functional and morphological interpretations of enamel thickness along the deciduous tooth row in human children.

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 2013
The significance of a gradient in enamel thickness along the human permanent molar row has been debated in the literature. Some attribute increased enamel thickness from first to third molars to greater bite force during chewing.
