A case of ankylosis of the maxillary right first permanent molar has been described. For 19 months, no change had been observed clinically or radiographically in the development of the tooth. A diagnosis of ankylosis of the unerupted tooth was made. Instead of extracting the tooth, the ankylosed tooth was rocked in the bone to break the point of ankylosis. The tooth subsequently erupted and satisfactory functional results were obtained. It is suggested that this procedure should be attempted in other cases of ankylosis of permanent teeth.
已描述了一例右上颌第一恒磨牙融合的病例。在19个月的时间里，在牙齿发育过程中，临床和影像学检查均未发现变化。诊断为未萌出牙融合。未拔除该牙，而是将融合牙在骨内摇动以破坏融合点。该牙随后萌出，并获得了满意的功能效果。建议在其他恒牙融合病例中尝试此方法。
