Positional changes in mesio-angular impacted mandibular third molars during a year



WR Shiller

The results of this study show that positional changes occur in the mandibular third molar at least until 20 years of age. A significant number of mandibular third molars in young adults in positions of mesio-angular impaction attain an upright position in a year. A significant relationship exists between the initial age of the patient and the amount of change in the inclination of the third molar. Initial inclination is closely related to the change in inclination in mandibular third molars.
