Abnormal lump on the gum

What is the origin of these problems?

Why does a tooth remain stuck in the jawbone?

The lack of space

This is the main cause. If the jaw is too narrow, the last teeth get stuck.

An obstacle in the way

A stubborn baby tooth, an extra permanent tooth, or another anatomical obstacle blocks the natural eruption of the tooth

Wrong direction

The tooth bud has developed crookedly in the bone and is growing in the wrong direction.

Genetic factors

Some families have a predisposition to impacted teeth or agenesis (missing teeth).

How can Dr. Barrière help you?

Orthodontic and surgical treatment will guide the tooth into its optimal position.

3D Cone Beam Imaging

This allows you to locate the impacted tooth in order to best plan its future relocation.

Space creation

Fitting of an orthodontic appliance to prepare the exact place where the impacted tooth will fit.

Clearance and Traction

The surgeon exposes the tooth, and the orthodontist gradually moves the tooth into its final position.

What are the risks if we don't act?

An impacted tooth cannot remain indefinitely in the bone without monitoring.

3D Cone Beam Imaging

The impacted tooth can damage or destroy the roots of neighboring healthy teeth.

Cyst formation

The capsule around the impacted tooth can turn into a bone cyst.

General offset

The absence of a tooth on the arch disrupts the entire chewing function of the child.

Is a permanent tooth taking a long time to erupt?

A simple panoramic X-ray can clear up any doubt. Make an appointment for a check-up.
