Article Description

Examination of 110 cheek teeth (CT) that were clinically extracted (between 2004 and 2008) because of apical infection ( n = 79; mean dental age 3.5 years) or idiopathic CT fractures ( n = 31; median dental age 8.5 years), including examinations of transverse and longitudinal sections, showed the apical infections to be mainly (68%) due to anachoresis, with the residual cases caused by periodontal spread, infundibular caries spread, fissure fractures and dysplasia.
