This study classifies maxillary tooth transpositions, identifying five main types based on anatomical factors. Findings offer new insights into the causes and treatment of these orthodontic anomalies.

Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Orthodontics
  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Background:

  • Tooth transposition is a significant disruption in tooth eruption and alignment.
  • Understanding maxillary tooth transposition is crucial for orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To classify maxillary tooth transpositions based on anatomical factors.
  • To analyze the prevalence and characteristics of different types of maxillary tooth transpositions.
  • To provide new analyses on the causes and treatment of these anomalies.

Main Methods:

  • A comprehensive review of published cases of maxillary tooth transposition from global sources.
  • Classification of transpositions based on anatomical factors using a sample of 201 cases.

  • Analysis of the frequency and patterns of the identified transposition types.
  • Main Results:

    • Five distinct types of maxillary tooth transpositions were identified: canine-first premolar (Mx.C.P1) (143 cases), canine-lateral incisor (Mx.C.I2) (40 cases), canine to first molar site (Mx.C to M1) (8 cases), lateral incisor-central incisor (Mx.I2.I1) (6 cases), and canine to central incisor site (Mx.C to I1) (4 cases).
    • The canine-first premolar transposition was the most prevalent type observed in the study.
    • The study provides a detailed breakdown of case numbers for each identified maxillary transposition type.

    Conclusions:

    • Maxillary tooth transpositions can be classified into five main types based on anatomical considerations.
    • This classification aids in understanding the etiology and developing targeted treatment strategies for maxillary tooth transpositions.
    • The findings contribute valuable data for orthodontists managing patients with tooth transposition anomalies.
