Tooth migration during the transitional dentition.

R J Ackerman

    Dental Clinics of North America
    |October 11, 1976

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Posteruptive tooth migration from ages 6 to 14 involves forward drifting and intra-alveolar movement of incisors, canines, and molars. Molars and incisors also exhibit significant occlusal drift, with minimal lateral movement observed.

    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Orthodontics
    • Pediatric Dentistry

    Background:

    • Tooth migration is a complex process occurring during mixed dentition.
    • Understanding posteruptive tooth movement is crucial for orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze the patterns of tooth migration between 6 and 14 years of age.
    • To quantify the extent of total arch displacement and intra-alveolar tooth movement.

    Main Methods:

    • Longitudinal study tracking tooth positions over time.
    • Analysis of dental arch dimensions and individual tooth movements within the alveolar bone.

    Main Results:

    • Significant forward (mesial) drift observed in central incisors, canines, and permanent first molars.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Molars and incisors demonstrated notable occlusal migration.
  • Lateral (transverse) movement of molars and canines within the alveolar arch was found to be negligible.

    • Conclusions:

    • Posteruptive tooth migration is characterized by both arch-level and intra-alveolar changes.
    • The primary movements involve mesial and occlusal drift, with minimal lateral displacement.
    • These findings have implications for understanding normal dental development and guiding orthodontic interventions.
