• Malocclusion

  Severe malocclusion can cause difficulties in eating and speaking. Dear Doc, My teeth do not fit properly in my mouth. What is the cause of this? Gwen. Dear Gwen, What you probably have is a form of malocclusion. [nation.co.ke]

  More than 90 percent of children have some degree of malocclusion or poor bite. Skeletal malocclusions occur when the upper and lower jaws are not properly aligned with each other and with the skull. [healthofchildren.com]

  – Jaw joints, chewing muscles and bite abnormalities Bruxism Condylar resorption Mandibular dislocation Malocclusion Crossbite Open bite Overbite Overeruption Overjet Prognathia Retrognathia Scissor bite Maxillary hypoplasia Temporomandibular joint dysfunction [en.wikipedia.org]

  Malocclusion: Misalignment between the teeth of the upper and lower jaw. Crowding: Malocclusion due to inadequate anatomic arch space to accommodate the teeth in proper alignment. [denteractive.com]

• Tooth Loss

  Decay: If a cavity is left untreated, it will progressively erode the tooth. Eventually, decay may destroy the entire tooth and lead to tooth loss. [polkdentistry.com]

  Caries in the tooth body leads to pain, inflammation and tooth loss, and represent one of the most common diseases throughout the world. In the United States, dental caries is the most common chronic childhood disease. [discovery.lifemapsc.com]

  […] syndrome Vertical root fracture Occlusal Tooth loss Edentulism Tooth wear Abrasion Abfraction Acid erosion Attrition Periodontium ( gingiva, periodontal ligament, cementum, alveolus ) – Gums and tooth-supporting structures Cementicle Cementoblastoma [en.wikipedia.org]

  If tooth loss should occur, care should be taken in the fabrication of appliances which may exert pressure on remaining teeth because the roots fracture easily. [slideshare.net]

• Small Teeth

  After all, small teeth is better than no teeth! 2. Crowns For single small teeth, a crown can be placed on it. [intelligentdental.com]

  Size abnormalities such as abnormally small teeth, microdontia, abnormally large teeth, macrodontia. [discovery.lifemapsc.com]

  This genetic disorder is characterized by missing teeth or teeth that are malformed (frequently small and pointed). [polkdentistry.com]

• Tooth Discoloration

  Pulp cap: Technique used in dental restorations to help preserve the health of the dental pulp after being exposed during cavity preparation or after deeper tooth fracture. Bleaching: The use of chemical agents to lighten tooth discolorations. [denteractive.com]

  Ankylosis: Fixation of a tooth to the jaw bone resulting from fusion of the cementum and alveolar bone. Oral sedation: administration of oral sedative drugs to help reduce patients fear and anxiety. Nitrous oxide: also known as the laughing gas. [denteractive.com]

• Irritability

  Fecal transplant is used to treat gut infections and is now being studied as a treatment for obesity, urinary tract infections, irritable bowel syndrome and more. [nytimes.com]

  Ankylosis Associated factors  Disturbances from changes in local metabolism  Trauma  Injury  Irritation  Local failure of bone growth  Abnormal pressure from the tongue 26 27. [slideshare.net]

As a solution, the mesiodens is usually extracted and orthodontic treatment performed. [More about this digital makeover case.] Orthodontic treatment. [animated-teeth.com]

Although taurodontism is a dental rarity, this unusual radicular form should merit circumspect considerations in planning and treatment. Endodontic management in taurodont teeth has been described as complex and difficult. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Correct diagnosis of the condition implicates right treatment and a better prognosis. Management of fusion warrants regular and careful monitoring with long-term follow-ups. [journalgateway.com]

Cause : The exact etiology of this condition is unknown, but is thought to be a result of genetics or a disruption of the tooth during formation. [slideshare.net]

Drawbacks of the classification lie in insufficient representation of dentognathic anomalies etiology. V.Y. Kurliandskyi's classification (1957) is based on the morphologic occlusion changes. [intranet.tdmu.edu.ua]

Their etiology is unknown. Fig. 108: Histologic section through a free (FC) and a sessile (SC) cementicle. [dental.pitt.edu]
