abstract = {Dentoalveolar ankylosis is defined as an eruption defect induced by the fusion
of the alveolar bone with the cement or the dentin of the tooth related to the
periodontal ligament loss. Its etiology is still discussed but it is known to have a genetic
association and a relation with a disruption of the periodontal ligament metabolism.
This pathology often leads to alterations in the dentition such as infraocclusion and
disruptions of the path of eruption leading to arch length loss.
Although ankylosis is predominantly found in primary dentition, it is a frequent
disease and its incidence is higher in females than males, affecting also significantly
more mandibular molars than maxillary molars. The most frequently ankylosed tooth is
the lower first primary molar.
Nowadays, diagnosis techniques include intraoral exploration with movement
checking, radiological study for exfoliation or periodontal ligament disappearance.
When it comes to treatment, we distinguish two situations: when there is a premolar
precursor and when there’s an agenesis of the premolar but it can remain difficult for
the clinician to come up with the best therapeutic choice.},
