Primary failure of tooth eruption (disorder) | | Primary failure of tooth eruption | | PFE - primary failure of tooth eruption
| | A rare genetic odontologic disease with characteristics of failure of eruption of non-ankylosed permanent teeth without evidence of obvious mechanical obstruction. Posterior teeth are preferentially affected (typically with involvement of all teeth distal to the most mesial non-erupted tooth), resulting in a posterior open bite. Non-ankylosed teeth tend to become ankylosed, and orthodontic treatment of affected teeth is generally unsuccessful. |
