“…The percentage of extracted teeth in the mandible is about two-folds of those in the mandible, and molar teeth are commonly extracted 1 . A single-center study reported that the most common type of tooth extracted is the primary first molar, followed by the first incisor 2 . Caries is the most common cause of extracted teeth in children aged two to 13 years, which accounted for 57.4% of participants in one study 3 .…”

Background: Teeth extraction is a common therapeutic practice in dentistry. Clinics for management a variety of pathological, traumatic, or congenital conditions. The prevalence of teeth extraction is related to the dental hygiene of the participants. Aim: This study aimed to demonstrate the distribution of the site and type of extracted teeth according to the age and sex of the participants. Methods: This retrospective study was conducted in teaching dentistry clinics in the Al-Rafidain College University throughout 2019. The data of participants were extracted from case sheet archives of patients who attended the clinics during 2017-2019. The outcome measures extracted from these case sheets include age, gender, site, and type of the extracted tooth.Results: A total number of 3,417 males and 2,377 females (with a ratio of 1.44:1) participated in this study.Patients aged 30-50 years constituted the highest frequency of those who attended the clinics for tooth extraction.Maxillary teeth extraction makes up 60.1% of tooth extractions in males compared to 55% in females. Females had a lower percentage (40.8%) of molar accused teeth, which is significantly different (P=0.019) from the rate reported in males (43.5%).

“…Many studies reveal that dental diseases such as caries, periodontal diseases, and trauma remain as the primary etiological factors early loss of teeth among all age groups which can lead to space loss 13, [21][22][23] . Evidence suggests that the most frequently extracted tooth in the maxillary arch is the maxillary primary incisor in 2-5 years age group and first primary molar in [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] years age group 24 . Similar findings have been reported in literature suggesting the most frequently extracted tooth to be the first primary molar in the mixed dentition period 25 .…”

Early or premature loss is defined as the loss of a deciduous tooth before its time of natural exfoliation.The disruption in the normal physiological process of deciduous tooth exfoliation and eruption of its successor may cause a series of changes in the dental arches ranging from a change in arch length to malocclusion of successive teeth. Premature loss of teeth can adversely affect oral health-related quality of life in children . The main aim of this study was to investigate the most frequently extracted maxillary primary tooth in children aged 1-15 years in Chennai, Tamil Nadu. This retrospective study was conducted among pediatric patients who visited the OP of a university teaching hospital in Chennai during the period of June 2019 to March 2020. The collected data was then subjected to statistical analysis using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS). Descriptive statistics and Chi square tests were used. The most frequent age group was the 7-12 years age group with 61.5% of the total population. Exodontia was most frequently seen in boys with 53.9% of the total population.The most frequently extracted teeth was maxillary first right primary molar with 17.8% followed by maxillary first left primary molar with 16.1%.Maxillary central incisors was the most frequently extracted teeth in younger age group 1-6 years with right primary maxillary central incisor 8.33% and maxillary left primary central incisor 7.95% of total population. Within the limits of the study,Most frequently extracted tooth in the maxillary arch was the first primary molar. Exodontia was more prevalent in the age group of 7-12 years. The most frequently extracted tooth in the younger age group (1-6 years) was found to be the central incisors.

“…In developing countries such as Mexico, where access to and provision of dental health services is limited because of the lack of supplies, dental extraction is often the treatment of choice for primary teeth. [9] Premature tooth loss has been defined as the loss of a dental organ before the time of natural exfoliation. [10] Studies conducted around the world on premature tooth loss reveal a prevalence ranging from 8.5% to 51.0%.…”

“…[6] The most common cause of this event is dental caries, and other factors reported include trauma, ectopic eruption, congenital disorders, and orthodontic considerations. [11–13] Premature loss can cause difficulty with the proper development of mastication, and also disorders in phonation and a decrease in the perimeter of the temporary dental arch, favoring alterations in craniofacial growth. In particular, a reduction in the length of the dental arch can cause crowding and tooth impaction, and increase the need for orthodontic treatment.…”

Interproximal caries and premature tooth loss in primary dentition as risk factors for loss of space in the posterior sector

et al. 2019

Dental caries—a highly prevalent public health problem in preschoolers and school children—is the main cause of premature dental loss during childhood, and this may be related to loss of space in the posterior sector. The objective of this study was to evaluate whether interproximal caries and premature tooth loss (D and/or E) are risk factors for loss of space in the posterior sector.A comparative cross-sectional study (split-mouth type) was performed in schoolchildren (6–8 years old). Seventeen gypsum models were evaluated. These children presented with unilateral loss of a dental organ or interproximal caries (teeth D and/or E) and without such affectations on the other side. Measurements were made with a digital Vernier caliper. The dependent variable was the difference (loss of space, mm) between the control and case sides. The independent variables were type of affectation (interproximal caries or tooth loss), sex, age, arcade, and number of interproximal surfaces affected.The mean age was 6.82 ± 0.44 years and 64.7% were boys. The average space loss was 1.09 ± 0.18 mm (control vs case; P < .0001). A greater loss of space was observed among those who lost a dental organ than those with interproximal caries (P = .0119). A correlation was observed between the variable loss of space and the number of interproximal surfaces affected (r = 0.5712, P = .0166).Interproximal caries and tooth loss were risk factors for loss of space in the posterior segment in this sample of Mexican schoolchildren.
