Erupção tardia de dentes permantes - relato de caso

Abstract

Teeth eruption has a chronology that depends on both the age of the individual and the time of occurrence, but it can vary. Therefore, delay in tooth eruption can occur due to several factors, and indicates that there are changes in the process that need to be identified and treated. The present work presents the clinical case of a 12-year-old, 9-month-old patient, in whom, during a routine consultation, prolonged retention of the following deciduous teeth was identified: maxillary deciduous canines and molars on the right side, maxillary deciduous canine on the side. left, lower deciduous second molar on the left side, and lower deciduous first molar on the right side. In view of this diagnosis, it was decided to extract these primary teeth, so that the corresponding permanent successors could erupt. The results show that regular visits to the dentist and detailed diagnosis can decrease the incidence of late eruptions, and even deviations from the route of eruption of permanent teeth and its impact on the patient's smile and oral health.
