    Author: Mitsuhata C, Konishi Y, Kaihara Y, Kozaia K.
    Journal: Eur J Paediatr Dent; 2014 Jul; 15(2 Suppl):181-3. PubMed ID: 25101497.
    Abstract:
    AIM: Ectopic eruption (EE) of a first permanent molar occurs during mixed dentition. However, treatment of first permanent mandibular molar EE has been seldom reported. CASE REPORT: The cases of an 8-year-old girl and a 7-year-old boy are described, whose EE first permanent mandibular molars were correctly positioned after treatment with a dental appliance comprising a lingual arch, sectional arch, crimpable hook, and power chain or a simple molar controller, respectively. Both dental appliances are technically easy to construct, require short chair time, induce little discomfort on the patient, and ensure high-level treatment efficiency.
