How the dentition erupts, and what controls it, is fundamental to almost all aspects of clinical dentistry, yet the mechanisms behind this have not yet been fully elucidated. When the process continues into space that has been created through toothwear or tooth loss, problems in placing restorations can be encountered. This review examines the possible mechanisms of tooth eruption. Differences between processes in animals and humans are highlighted. The limitations of conclusions drawn from animal studies are then discussed with reference to human dental conditions. The differing forms of overeruption in humans are described and the treatment options for overerupted teeth, including prevention of the situation arising, are provided with a discussion of the quality of the evidence base behind these.
牙齿如何萌出以及是什么控制牙齿萌出，几乎是临床牙科所有方面的基础，但这背后的机制尚未完全阐明。当这个过程持续到因牙齿磨损或牙齿缺失而产生的空间时，就会在放置修复体时遇到问题。这篇综述探讨了牙齿萌出的可能机制。强调了动物和人类过程之间的差异。然后参考人类牙齿状况讨论了从动物研究得出的结论的局限性。描述了人类牙齿过度萌出的不同形式，并提供了针对过度萌出牙齿的治疗选择，包括预防这种情况的发生，并讨论了这些治疗方法背后证据基础的质量。
