No, I have the same problem, you can either have it taken out altogether and have a fake tooth put in, or you can have the adult tooth brought down with braces. So far the braces thing isn't so bad, fyi. I have surgery tomorrow to expose my adult tooth. But I asked the same question, and the answer was no for me.
You probably have either a congenitally missing or impacted permanent adult tooth.
if the tooth is impacted, the tooth must be extracted.
yes but a adult tooth cant grow in place of an adult tooth
A baby tooth is smaller than a adult tooth.
Extraction of a wisdom tooth will involve several codes. You will probably need a brief exam to determine how bad the tooth/teeth are, anesthesia/medication and the actual surgery. You can find a list of dental codes at the Related Link. The ones you are specifically asking about are as follows: D7220 removal of impacted tooth - soft tissue D7230 removal of impacted tooth - partially bony D7240 removal of impacted tooth - completely bony D7241 removal of impacted tooth - completely bony, with unusual surgical complications
An impacted canine tooth is easier to treat if caught at a young age. By removing extra teeth and opening up a proper space for the tooth, it will often erupt on its own. Some patients, particularly those who are past their early teens, may require surgery. The oral surgeon will remove the gum and sometimes bone covering the tooth. An orthodontist will then be able to attach a bracket and chain to the tooth to pull it in to its proper position.
Submerged dentition. If a tooth is stuck and wants to come out but cannot, we call it an impacted tooth. Usually it is a third molar tooth that causes this condition. also known as impacted wisdom tooth.
No, The adult teeth forms separate from the child tooth. However if nutrition is not improved while the adult tooth is coming before the adult tooth comes in, there is a higher chance it will be weak and more prone to decay.
got to the dentist
it indicates the presence of an impacted tooth in th bottom of a horses mouth.
Not a good idea. Even if the space retainer is on a 'baby' tooth, it is meant to hold the space of the missing tooth until the adult tooth erupts. If the space retainer is on another 'baby tooth', that could damage or even cause the tooth be be extracted early also-the very reason you had the space maintainer in the first place. If it is afixed to a permanent tooth, there could be irreplacable damage. Have your dentist look at it. They should be the determining factor, and besides no matter how gentle you try to be, it's still going to be uncomfortable for the child.
if you mean can you replace an adult tooth. yes in differant ways you would need to see a dentist who could then suggest alternativesd such as a bridge which is a false tooth that is permanently glued to teeth at either side. denture which is a plate with a falsetooth on or an implant but these depend on bonelevels and the space left for the tooth, this option is expensive but permanent solution.
