Description
Rahela Tabita Moca, Abel Emanuel Moca, and Mihai Juncar scanned the back teeth of Romanian patients in 2024 for place faults. Second molars anchor the bite, yet they can tilt, twist, sit low, or fail to break through. The team read digital models of 103 patients aged twelve to forty, made with a mouth scanner. Faults were sorted by kind and by jaw.
Faults were common. Low-sitting teeth and outward tilts led in the upper jaw. Inward tilts and one twist type led in the lower jaw. Faults on one side of a jaw tended to mirror on the other, which hints at shared causes. Sex and bite type showed no clear sway. The team urges close watch on these teeth in teen care.
