Study Notes
Theories of Eruption
- There are four theories of eruption: root growth, bone remodeling, periodontal ligament traction, and vascular pressure in dental tissues.
Mechanisms of Eruption
- Construction and reorganization of periodontal ligament (PDL)
- Formation of the root and deposition of alveolar bone, followed by remodeling of bone overall
- Further influences from tooth/teeth in occlusion and muscle actions
Root Growth
- Increase in root length or root elongation forces the tooth into the oral cavity
Bone Remodeling
- Alveolar process forms in areas where teeth are developing and is deficient in areas where teeth fail to develop
- Alveolar bone changes involve both formation and resorption, dependent on the presence of dental sac or dental follicle
- The cycle of bone development is rhythmic, with instances of osteoblastic followed by osteoclastic activity
Periodontal Ligament Traction
- Periodontal ligament has a role to play, especially towards the end of the eruption
- Contractile fibers play a role in eruption
- Periodontal ligament provides the force required for eruption
Vascular Pressure in Dental Tissues
- Vascular pressures are present in pulpal tissues and periodontal ligament
- Pulsating pressure enhances cellular activity and has a direct eruptive role
Post-Eruptive Stage
- Passive eruption involves gingival recession onto and down the cementum with loss of alveolar-crest bone
Clinical Consideration
- Tooth eruption separates the jaws once the teeth meet in occlusion
- Teeth influence each other mechanically once they meet in occlusion
Post-Eruptive Stage
- The stage begins when the teeth come into occlusion and continues until they are lost or death occurs
- The type of movement is axial and mesial migration
- Acts as a compensatory mechanism, most active between the ages of 14 and 18 years
Tooth Movements Occurring in Eruption
- Axial movement occurs by root growth and bone remodeling
- Drifting (e.g., mesially, laterally) occurs by bone remodeling and PDL reorganization
- Rotatory movement occurs by bone remodeling and PDL reorganization
Stages of Tooth Eruption
- Three stages of tooth eruption: preeruptive, eruptive, and post-eruptive stages
Histology of Tooth Eruption
- The fibrous cord (gubernacular cord) leads the way and breaks down the bone between the tooth and the surface oral epithelium
- The gubernacular cord runs through a canal left in the bony crypt, where the dental lamina extended down to establish the germ for the second tooth
Active Tooth Eruption
- The term active tooth eruption implies the emergence of the crown into the oral cavity
- Divided into three stages: preeruptive, eruptive, and post-eruptive stages
Tooth Eruption
- Defined as the process of movement of a tooth from its developmental position within the jaws to its functional position in the oral cavity
- Can be active or passive
