Severe ankylosis is rare and any affected teeth are unlikely to exfoliate spontaneously. If left untreated, subsequent complications can develop.
Case presentation
We treated a boy aged 10 years with a tooth affected by ankylosis for a long period, which caused dislocation of the mandibular second premolar. Because adjacent teeth were inclined, there was insufficient space for extraction and space regaining therapy was required.
Conclusion
It is important to properly determine the severity of the ankylosed tooth when it is detected and provide treatment with appropriate timing.

Introduction
The term molar incisor hypomineralisation (MIH) was used by Weerheijm, Jälevik and Alaluusa in 2001 to describe hypomineralisation of systemic origin of 1–4 permanent first molars, frequently associated with affected incisors. MIH had previously been described by various terms such as, mottling of enamel and cheese molars. Assessment of MIH between studies is confounded by different terminology, resulting in difficulty in being able to ascertain when this disorder initially presented. Asking whether MIH is a new disease of the 21st century, or whether it existed previously, may help to establish if aetiological factors are liked to contemporary lifestyle.
Materials and methods
Cochrane Library, Embase, Medline and Web of Science were the databases used to conduct an extensive literature search. Specific search terms and inclusion/exclusion criteria were used to identify relevant publications. After the screening process, 13 articles were included in this review, 5 investigated archaeological specimens, whilst the remaining 8 were clinical studies, where participants were born before the 21st century.
Results
Four common themes identified on review of the selected publications were: suggested rates of MIH between archaeological studies vastly differ, clinical studies carried out before 2001 suggest similar rates of MIH to present day, despite use of different terminology. Both archaeologic and clinical studies suggest MIH existed before the 21st century and publications using clinical assessment either focus on children or adolescents.
Conclusion
Analysis of the selected publications suggests that MIH was present before the 21st century. This is demonstrated in both clinical and archaeological studies.
2001年,Weerheijm、Jälevik和Alaluusa使用了磨牙切牙低矿化(MIH)一词来描述1-4颗恒磨牙的系统性低矿化,通常与受影响的门牙有关。MIH以前被描述为各种术语,如珐琅斑驳和奶酪磨牙。研究之间对MIH的评估因不同的术语而混淆,导致难以确定这种疾病最初出现的时间。询问MIH是否是21世纪的新疾病,或者以前是否存在,可能有助于确定病因因素是否与当代生活方式有关。材料与方法采用cochrane Library、Embase、Medline和Web of Science等数据库进行广泛的文献检索。使用特定的检索词和纳入/排除标准来识别相关出版物。经过筛选,本次综述纳入了13篇文章,其中5篇是考古标本调查,其余8篇是临床研究,参与者出生在21世纪之前。结果通过对所选出版物的回顾,确定了四个共同的主题:考古研究之间的MIH建议率差异很大;2001年之前进行的临床研究表明,尽管使用不同的术语,但MIH的建议率与现在相似。考古学和临床研究都表明,MIH在21世纪之前就存在了,使用临床评估的出版物主要集中在儿童或青少年身上。结论对所选文献的分析表明,21世纪以前就存在MIH。这在临床和考古研究中都得到了证明。

We present a case of 6-year- and 10-month-old boy with an impacted primary molar. An x-ray photograph revealed the impacted mandibular right primary second molar with small hard tissue on the crown of the tooth as an obstacle. We extracted the small hard tissue and the mandibular right primary second molar.
A histopathological examination of the obstacle revealed a tooth germ containing dental papilla, dentin, and enamel. The obstacle was diagnosed as the tooth germ of the mandibular right second premolar.
In conclusion, the early detection of impacted primary molars is important for children's healthy growth and development.

Introduction
Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) is a chronic autoimmune disease that commonly manifests in childhood as insulin deficiency and resultant hyperglycaemia. Improved understanding of the pathogenesis of T1D has occurred in recent decades and is currently considered to be complex interaction between an individual's genetics, environment, microbiome, and immune system. Oral complications of T1D include periodontal disease, xerostomia, and mucosal changes and early evidence suggesting an association with dental caries. Caries in children with T1D can lead to serious complications including poor sleep quality, reduced performance and attendance at school, and decreased oral intake.There is preliminary evidence suggesting that poorer glycaemic control is related to a higher experience of caries.
Materials and methods
A crtical review of the literature was undertaken to hypothesise the pathogenesis and explore the presence of a potential relationship between T1D and caries.
Conclusion
Children with T1D who have poorer glycaemic control face an increased risk of caries experience. Further research is required to determine if there is an association between glycaemic control and oral microbiota.

A nine-year-old male developed severe opportunistic apical periodontitis in maxillary permanent first molars following myeloablative anticancer therapy for T cell lymphoblastic lymphoma. His developmental trajectory was characterized by limited dental care adherence, maltreatment and developmental trauma disorder, suggesting that a complex interplay between premorbid dental neglect and chemotherapy-related toxicity had exacerbated the progression of the dental infection. We would like to stress the importance of biopsychosocial assessment for severe periodontal infection to provide individualized supportive intervention, thereby improving the quality of life of patients with poor oral health literacy.

This study purposed to investigate the nature of “Developmental Insufficiency of Oral Function (DIOF)” by performing various tests using medical equipment to evaluate oral functions in children, and consequently, contribute to the diagnosis and treatment of the disease in future.
Methods
The participants in this study were 96 children (age 3–6 years; 42 boys and 54 girls). Through the questionnaires for the parents, data on the target children's age, gender, growth history, home environment, lifestyle, oral habits, pronunciation, exercise habits, nasal diseases, and eating behaviors were collected. Furthermore, calf circumference, grip strength, tongue pressure, occlusal force, lip-closure strength, mouth rinsing function test, speech function, and oral examination were performed.
Results
The percentage of those who answered “Yes” to the items about eating behavior was significantly higher in the DIOF positive group than that of those without DIOF. Moreover, the value of tongue pressure was found to be significantly lower in the group with DIOF than in the group without DIOF. Analysis of other survey items revealed lack of significant differences between absence and presence of DIOF.
Conclusions
Lower tongue pressure, nasal disease, and the problem of eating behavior affect DIOF in children. The results of this study suggest that interviewing parents and measuring tongue pressure may be useful in the diagnosis of DIOF in children.

The inflammatory dentigerous cyst (IDC) occurs as a result of spread of an inflammatory exudate from a non-vital, decayed or endodontically treated deciduous tooth to the permanent tooth follicle. Although diagnosis of the lesion is possible with two-dimensional imaging modalities, nevertheless, three-dimensional (3D) imaging such as cone-beam-CT (CBCT) offers an advantage of assessing the 3D anatomical localization and extension of the cyst, which is necessary for formulating an optimal surgical treatment plan. Due to the rarity of evidence related to CBCT based diagnosis of the IDC, the aim of this study is to present a series of three cases of IDC following endodontic treatment of deciduous molars. A clinician should be aware of the IDC occurrence and perform a regular clinical and radiological follow-up following endodontic interventions and if delayed shedding of the deciduous teeth and dentigerous cyst are observed in the same region.

The hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome is a rare primary immunodeficiency, characterized by a triad of clinical signs including elevated serum IgE levels, recurrent staphylococcal skin abscesses and pneumonia. It can be autosomal dominant or recessive and is characterized by immunological and non-immunological abnormalities.
Individuals with HIES share characteristic facial features, with many oral manifestations like retained deciduous teeth, missing permanent tooth buds, high arched palate, oral and gingival lesions, etc.
This report aimed to describe a rare clinical case of a 13-year-old girl, that was referred to our paediatric dentistry department at the Mohammed V University Hospital in Rabat-Morocco, diagnosed with autosomal dominant hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome with numerous oral manifestations.

Lowe syndrome is characterized by abnormalities of the eyes, central nervous system and kidneys, caused by a mutation of the oculocerebrorenal gene on the X-chromosome. Oral features associated with this syndrome include enamel hypoplasia, chronic gingivitis and mobile teeth, with few studies focusing on these features. The present case report describes the oral and dental findings of a 10-year-old boy with Lowe syndrome, who was followed for 4 years. In spite of several treatment sessions and oral hygiene appointments, the chronic gingivitis with anterior fibrotic gingiva has increased over time, as well as the mobility of the anterior permanent teeth.
