In cases of orthodontic traction of unerupted teeth, gingival recession and long clinical crowns are often seen. Satisfactory esthetic demands are not always met. A case of an unerupted maxillary central incisor is presented, in which traction was used, with emphasis on the surgical technique and the direction of the pull. The result was clinically favorable. The appearance of gingival margin was restored.

Aim: Pre-eruptive intracoronal resorption (PIER) defects constitute an important part of anomalies associated with unerupted teeth. However, these defects are usually overlooked by clinicians whilst interpreting radiographs. This systematic review was thus orchestrated to find the global prevalence of PEIR.

Introduction: Accuracy and user experience of dental diagnosis for a patient with cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) using immersive virtual reality (VR) and cone-beam computed tomography multiplanar reconstruction methods were evaluated.
Methods: Dental students (n = 40) were randomly assigned to VR or MP groups. VR participants manipulated and visualized the rendered 3-dimensional model using VR hardware and software.

Odontoma is an occasionally encountered condition that disturbs the eruption of adjacent teeth. Few reports have described multiple odontomas occurring at two adjacent sites, resulting in eruption disturbances of both primary and permanent teeth. An 8-year 2-month-old boy was referred to our hospital.

Class III malocclusion presents many challenges due to its varying elements of imbalance in skeletal, dental, and soft tissues. This necessitates a comprehensive treatment plan, including growth modification during the pre-pubertal growth phase, and long-term retention to reduce the chances of orthognathic surgery later. The components of Class III malocclusion include maxillary retrognathism, mandibular prognathism, or, in some cases, a combination of both.

Objectives: Accurate estimation of unerupted permanent canines and premolars is a crucial step for effective orthodontic treatment planning during mixed dentition. This study aimed to evaluate the validity of Moyers' charts and the Tanaka-Johnston equation in predicting tooth sizes in a sample of the Madina population in Saudi Arabia and propose a new regression equation.
Methods: Dental casts from 219 subjects (113 males and 106 females) were analyzed.
