title: Eruption effects of microdontia--a case report.
abstract: A patient presented at the Department of Orthodontics, Medunsa Dental Hospital, complaining of "crooked teeth". On clinical examination it was evident that several teeth were unerupted. The absence of a normal eruption pattern of certain teeth as well as delayed eruption of others, resulted in a malocclusion.
