摘要
目的了解昆明地区乳牙融合牙的发生情况及分布特点。方法采用横断面研究方法,随机对3 116名3~6岁儿童进行口腔检查及记录。结果 3 116名儿童中乳牙融合牙发生率为2.73%,男女性别之间无统计学差异;在85例融合牙患儿中,76例(89.41%)发生于下颌,71例(83.53%)发生于单侧,14例(16.47%)两侧均有融合牙,且为对称性分布;在99颗融合牙中,16例(16.16%)发生龋坏,左右两侧发生率无统计学差异。结论乳牙融合牙有一定的发生率,好发于下颌前牙区,儿童口腔科医生应给予重视并密切观察,及时防治因乳牙融合继发的牙体牙髓、根尖周疾患,以及错牙合畸形等,将乳牙融合牙对儿童口颌系统的危害降至最低。
Objective To evaluate the prevalence and distribution of fused teeth in primary dentition of preschoolers in Kunming. Methods 3 116 children aged from 3 to 6 years old were randomly enrolled in a cross-sectional study. Fused teeth were assessed through visual examinations. Results Among the 3 116 subjects, a total of 85 individuals ( 2.73% ) presented with fusion of primary teeth without sex predilection. The fused teeth were typically located in the lower anterior region(89.41% ) , and mainly occurred unilat- erally(83.53% ). Of the 99 fused teeth,7 (17. 17% ) was accompanied with caries, without predilection between left and right side.
