  2. Dental subluxation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_subluxation

    It is most commonly seen in school children. Dental subluxation is one of the most common traumatic injuries in primary dentition. Maxillary central incisors are the most commonly affected teeth. [10] [11] Some studies have proposed that the resilience nature of periodontium favours dislocation than fracture of the tooth itself. [12]

  3. Joint dislocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_dislocation

    Each joint in the body can be dislocated, however, there are common sites where most dislocations occur. The most common dislocated parts of the body are discussed as follows: Dislocated shoulder. Anterior shoulder dislocation is the most common type of shoulder dislocation, accounting for at least 90% of shoulder dislocations.

  4. Hypermobility (joints) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypermobility_(joints)

    For example, their joints may be easily injured, be more prone to complete or partial dislocation due to the weakly stabilized joint and they may develop problems from muscle fatigue (as muscles must work harder to compensate for weakness in the ligaments that support the joints). Hypermobility syndromes can lead to chronic pain or even ...

  5. Tooth eruption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tooth_eruption

    Non-eruption of non-ankylosed teeth occurs due to an eruption mechanism that has failed leading to a posterior unilateral/bilateral open bite. [28] Infra occlusion is the primary hallmark of PFE. Primary teeth are most commonly affected and normally all teeth distal to the most mesially affected tooth will show characteristics of this disease.

  6. Dental trauma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_trauma

    The management depends on the type of injury involved and whether it is a baby or an adult tooth. If teeth are completely knocked out baby front teeth should not be replaced. The area should be cleaned gently and the child brought to see a dentist. Adult front teeth (which usually erupt at around six years of age) can be replaced immediately if ...

  7. Atraumatic restorative treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atraumatic_restorative...

    ART fillings can be used in multiple situations, such as for single-surface cavities in primary (baby teeth) and permanent (adult) teeth, and multiple-surface cavities in primary teeth, if no other option is available or suitable (e.g. Hall Technique). They can also be used for non-frankly cavitated lesions (presenting a shadow under the enamel ...

  8. Permanent teeth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_teeth

    Permanent teeth or adult teeth are the second set of teeth formed in diphyodont mammals.In humans and old world simians, there are thirty-two permanent teeth, consisting of six maxillary and six mandibular molars, four maxillary and four mandibular premolars, two maxillary and two mandibular canines, four maxillary and four mandibular incisors.

  9. Tooth resorption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tooth_resorption

    Resorption of the root of the tooth, or root resorption, is the progressive loss of dentin and cementum by the action of odontoclasts. [4] Root resorption is a normal physiological process that occurs in the exfoliation of the primary dentition.
