Dr. Jamal Giri presented on the development of dentition and tooth eruption. The presentation covered the stages of tooth development from the bud stage through root formation and eruption. It discussed the various theories of tooth eruption including the roles of root formation, bone remodeling, the periodontal ligament, hydrostatic pressure, and the dental follicle. It also summarized Proffit's contributions regarding the mechanism and control of tooth eruption, including maintaining an eruptive force and clearing the eruption path.

33. Tooth eruption
Greek word:
Erumpere- to break out
The process whereby a tooth moves from its
developmental position within the jaws to
emerge in the oral cavity.

Rootless teeth also erupt
(Dentin dysplasia).

distance of path of

37. Role of bone remodelling.
Selective deposition
and resorption of bone.

studies: when the tooth
germ is wired to bone,
the bony eruption
pathway is still formed.

38. Role of periodontal ligament.
Formation & renewal of
the PDL has been
considered a factor.
Pitfalls:

2) Primary failure of
eruption.

42. Study on dog’s premolar.
Removal of the follicle from the unerupted tooth
prevented the tooth from erupting (Cahill and
Marks, 1980).
Leaving the follicle intact and substituting an
inert object for the tooth resulted in eruption of
the inert object (Marks and Cahill, 1984).

43. Proffit’s contribution
Mechanism and control of tooth eruption:
overview and clinical implications, Orthod
Craniofac Res 2009;12:59–66.
Tooth eruption is difficult to study:
1) erupt slowly.
2) Inaccessible for clinical examination.
