Primary failure of eruption (PFE) is a rare condition that can lead to posterior open bites. It is difficult to diagnose and difficult to treat. PFE appears to be a condition that predominantly affects the molar dentition. The increased frequency of hypodontia in affected individuals and common findings of a family history regarding tooth eruption problems suggests a significant genetic component to the etiology of this rare condition.

Ribbon-like hypomineralization in human dental enamel.

Human dental enamel is a uniquely hard and tough biological realization of the inherently brittle apatite crystal. In sound enamel both structure and chemistry are organically fine-tuned, while developmental disorders - such as hypomineralization - often lead to severe enamel alterations resulting in weaker mechanical performance and shorter lifetime as in case of molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) which has a global prevalence of 13.5 %.

Rapid drug desensitization (RDD) is commonly used for immediate drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHR) across various drugs. In delayed DHRs, the conventional approach is slow desensitization; however, limitations may arise due to drug-specific or disease-related factors. With the increasing role of targeted molecular drugs in delayed DHRs, data on the efficacy of RDD in these contexts remain scarce.

Primary failure of tooth eruption (PFE) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by the failure of teeth to erupt in the absence of obvious physical obstructions, often resulting in a progressive open bite that is resistant to orthodontic treatment. While PFE can be caused by genetic or systemic factors (such as cysts, tumors, and endocrine imbalances), the non-syndromic causes are primarily genetic, with an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern with variable expressivity. Several genes have been closely associated with the non-syndromic PFE form.

Background: Root canal treatment is an important element of dental treatment, and broken instruments are one cause of endodontic treatment failure. Broken instruments are rarely reported in primary teeth because of their inherently wider and relatively straighter root canals. We describe a case of a patient with a broken instrument in a primary tooth and reviewed the literature across three databases.
