In 46 patients 82 persistent primary teeth were found.
Conclusions: The results indicate that persistent primary front teeth may at least be used for a temporary replacement of a lost permanent incisor.

Primary teeth, also called baby teeth, are usually connected to the jaw bone by a ligament.
Sometimes, the connection between tooth and ligament is lost, and the tooth fuses directly to the bone that surrounds it.
It occurs when teeth are exposed, frequently and at length, to liquids that contain sugar.

As far as baby teeth are concerned, they too may need to be removed to provide space as part of a so-called serial extraction sequence, or because they are over-retained and not loosening when they should.
In the case of tooth ankylosis (fusion to the surrounding bone) of either permanent or baby teeth, extractions are frequently indicated.
One usually refers to impacted teeth as teeth that are somehow prevented from erupting normally into the oral cavity.

 PCSO Bulletin, Fall 2002 Presentation Summary: "Understanding Impacted Teeth – Then Treating Them ...
This lecture also covered teeth from within dentigerous cysts and teeth that resorb the roots of adjacent teeth (Lecture 3) as well as multiple impactions and cleidocranial dysplasia (Lecture 4).
The aims of radiology in relation to impacted teeth are (1) to find the pathology such as supernumerary teeth, cystic damage, ankylosis, abnormality of crown or root, resorption of crown or root, and (2) to find the location using tube-shift method (lateral or vertical shift), panoramic view, views at right angles, and/or computed tomography.
The following principles for surgical exposure of impacted teeth were suggested: (1) wide soft tissue flap, (2) minimal exposure of the tooth – hemostasis and small attachment bonding, (3) cementoenamel junction undisturbed, (4) remainder of follicle undisturbed, and (5) full flap closure.

 Houston Dentist Aritcle - Dental Ankylosis: Diagnosis and Treatment. Houston TX Dentist, Dental Care
Ankylosis also may develop in children or adults when an injury (such as with sports or accidents) causes the top of the tooth to be broken off, leaving the roots behind.
Some studies have indicated that 1 to 3 percent of children may have ankylosis with one or more primary teeth, while other studies have indicated more than 38 percent of children may have ankylosis.
To ensure the healthy development of your child's teeth, ankylosis must be addressed.

 Ankylosis
Tooth ankylosis is the fusion of the tooth to the bone, preventing the tooth from erupting.
This can happen in both primary ("baby") teeth and permanent teeth, and may occur at any stage during development or eruption.
An exam and x-ray are the main diagnostic methods for determining ankylosis.

 Ankylosis
Your natural teeth are the best teeth you'll ever own, and your dentist will do
The fused tooth grows at a slower rate so that it appears to be submerged in the jaw when compared with other teeth.
Upper teeth need the support of the lower teeth, so if a lower tooth is "submerged," the tooth above it may grow out of its socket and lose its normal alignment.

 Supranumerary Teeth: Fourier Analysis of the Collagenous Dentinal Network   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
The ankylosis of these teeth into the bone can depend on pathologic embryogenesis.
Method: Therefore, we decided to evaluate the network of dentin collagen fibers in 50 supranumerary teeth and as a control, normal teeth, removed for orthodontic reasons.
Results: 75 % of supranumerary teeth have an abnormal morphology, manifested by heterogeneity of the number of canaliculi, from 3600 to 60 000 per square mm (in control from 5000 to 10 000) and their diameter from 0.9 to 7.99 ìm (in control from 1 to 2,99 ìm).
