Understanding Why Some Molar Teeth Don't Come In
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study looks at why some molar teeth (the larger back teeth) fail to erupt, or come through the gums. Researchers will review your dental records and history to identify common risk factors that might explain tooth eruption problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- One or more back molars (either baby or adult teeth) have not erupted or only partially erupted
- You have dental records available, including X-rays and clinical photos
- You are between 5 and 80 years old
- If you are an adult, you can understand and sign a consent form; if a child, a parent or guardian can sign
- You do not have a genetic syndrome or systemic disease affecting tooth development
- The tooth eruption problem is not due to trauma or injury

This study looks at how doctors diagnose delayed tooth eruption and how that affects treatment. It focuses on people with a condition called Primary Failure of Eruption (PFE) and tries to refine the best diagnostic checks.
This study looks at how common enamel defects are in second baby molars and whether they are linked to similar defects in permanent teeth. It helps dentists understand these conditions better.
This study looks at how common and severe a certain type of enamel problem (called molar incisor hypomineralization) is in children ages 8 to 14 who have type 1 diabetes. Participation helps researchers understand if there is a link between diabetes and this tooth condition.
This study looks at why some people show a lot of gum when they smile and how their teeth erupt (come in). Researchers want to understand how common these conditions are and what factors influence them.
This study tests a quick, less invasive method to treat permanent back teeth that have white or brown spots and weak enamel (a condition called MIH). The treatment involves placing a special metal cap on the tooth. The research tracks how this affects how the teeth bite together over time.
This study looks at how rare diseases can show up in the mouth and teeth, using pictures of your teeth. It may help doctors recognize dental signs earlier and better describe these rare conditions.
