Multiple submerged primary molars. A case report

Dental Center, P.O. Box 5911, Al Hassa 31982, Hofuf, Saudi Arabia
A 10-year-old Saudi girl was diagnosed with moderate to severe submergence of multiple primary molars (55, 75, 84 and 85). Occlusion was dysfunctional. All the submerged teeth were firmly in place although there was radiographic evidence of resorption of roots. The submerged teeth were apparently preventing eruption of the premolars. The submerged teeth were extracted under local anaesthesia and eighteen months follow-up showed a normal eruption of the premolars.
