Inversion has been defined as the malposition of a tooth in which the tooth is reversed and positioned upside down. Very few cases of inverted and impacted third molars have been reported in the literature. The most common location of such a third molar in the mandible is in the ascending ramus. In the maxilla, the teeth may be displaced as far as the floor of the orbit. Two cases of inverted and impacted third molars are described. They were conservatively managed without surgery. The two cases are reported because impaction with inversion of a molar tooth is not common.
倒置被定义为牙齿位置异常，即牙齿发生翻转并上下颠倒。文献中报道的倒置且阻生的第三磨牙病例非常少。下颌骨中此类第三磨牙最常见的位置是升支。在上颌骨中，牙齿可能会移位至眶底。本文描述了两例倒置且阻生的第三磨牙病例。它们采用保守治疗而非手术治疗。之所以报告这两例病例，是因为磨牙倒置并阻生的情况并不常见。
