Abstract
Exfoliation of the primary teeth and eruption of the permanent teeth is a normal and predictable physiologic process. The accurate prediction of tooth development is of major importance in treatment planning for children. Norms that correspond to the child's age and development have been determined by many investigators. However, there are a variety of factors that may hasten, retard, or otherwise affect the normal developmental process. Among the factors that influence tooth eruption is the premature loss of primary teeth. An abscess of a primary molar, followed by bone resorption and early extraction or exfoliation may lead to premature eruprion of the permanent succesor, and a variety of clinical sequelae. I, hereby present the patients who have prematurely erupted permanent successor in Seoul National University Hospital Pediatric Dentistry, and report the clinical and radiologic characteristics, its sequelae, proper managements, and followed up findings.
Key Words: permanent sussessor, premature eruption
