Study Notes
Tooth Eruption
- Tooth eruption is the process of movement of a tooth from its developmental position within the jaws to its functional position in the oral cavity.
- The term active tooth eruption implies the emergence of the crown into the oral cavity.
- Three stages of tooth eruption: preeruptive, eruptive, and post-eruptive stages.
Preeruptive Stage
- Begins as the crown starts to develop.
- Total bodily movement of the tooth germ.
- Growth in which one part of the tooth germ remains fixed while the rest continues to grow, leading to a change in the center of the tooth germ.
Eruptive Stage
- Tooth moves from its position within the bone of the jaw to its functional position in occlusion.
- Begins with the development of the root.
- Principal direction of movement is occlusal or axial.
Post-Eruptive Stage
- Begins when the teeth come into occlusion and continues until they are lost or death occurs.
- Type of movement is axial and mesial migration.
- Acts as a compensatory mechanism, most active between the ages of 14 and 18 years of age.
Theories of Eruption
- Root growth theory: increase in root length forces the tooth into the oral cavity.
- Bone remodeling theory: alveolar bone changes involve both formation and resorption.
- Periodontal ligament traction theory: periodontal ligament has a role to play in eruption.
- Vascular pressure in dental tissues theory: vascular pressures in pulpal tissues and periodontal ligament have a direct eruptive role.
Tooth Movement
- Axial movement: in the long axis of the tooth due to root growth and bone remodeling.
- Drifting movement: e.g., mesially, laterally, due to bone remodeling and PDL reorganization.
- Tilt movement: by bone remodeling and PDL reorganization.
- Rotatory movement: basil.
Clinical Considerations
- Teething: Breaking out of teeth through oral epithelium leading to pain and fever.
- Variation in schedule of eruption.
- Premature eruption.
- Natal teeth: teeth present in the oral cavity at time of birth, commonly deciduous mandibular central incisor.
- Impaction of teeth: due to lack of space in the jaw and failure of eruption, commonly affecting 3rd molars and maxillary canines.
