Study concerning the eruption of third maxilary molar
Journal Title: Medicine in Evolution - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 3
Abstract
Wisdom teeth have the greatest chronological variability their eruption, their apparition on the arch occurring between 16-25 years [1]. We studied two groups of young people between the ages of 18-19 and 24-25, respectively, observing the number of upper third molars erupted in the oral cavity and the eruption axis. The eruption of the wisdom tooth can be relieved by the creation of space as a result of the extraction of another molar from the same hemiarch, followed by the dental mesialization [2]. More than a third of young people, aged 24-25 years, are missing at least one maxillary third molar, phenomenon that we can attribute to anodontia or dental impaction. Female patients have a larger percentage of vestibular upper wisdom teeth.
