Interceptive approach to tooth eruption abnormalities: 10 year follow-up of a case.
A child affected by lack of eruption of the upper right primary cuspid from the presence of a compound odontoma was followed from 3 to 13 years of age. The early removal of the obstacle to eruption and the correct control of the case evolution allowed for a satisfactory alignment of the permanent teeth by means of minimal therapeutical intervention.
