Title: Impeded eruption of mandibular canine. Author: Lele GS, Modi D. Journal: J Contemp Dent Pract; 2013 Sep 01; 14(5):963-7. PubMed ID: 24685806. Abstract: Odontome, tumor of odontogenic origin, is associated with disturbances in the eruption of teeth such as impaction, delayed eruption or retention of permanent teeth. It is seen on radiographic examination as a radiopaque lesion which may be single or multiple. Morphologically, odontomes are of two types-compound or complex and can be found at any age with high prevalence in maxilla than in mandible. In this case report, lack of eruption of permanent mandibular canine owing to presence of associated compound odontome is presented.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
