. Elementary and dental radiography . id, the root of whichis somewhat resorbed. Age of patient, eleven years. Fig. 151 wasmade one year and seven months after Fig. 150. Compare this pic-ture with Fig. 150, and it will be seen that the permanent cuspid hasmigrated in a line with its long axis. causing resorption of the perma-nent lateral root. The temporary cuspid was extracted, but the perma-nent tooth did not erupt into its position in the arch. It was, therefore,concluded that the tooth would have to be brought down by somemechanical means. Accordingly, the gum tissue and overlvin^ processwere slit down to the cuspid and then gently sj^-ead apart, ami the 166 DENTAL RADIOGRAPHY cuspid was exposed to view. A piece of iridio-platinum wire wasthen shaped, as shown in Fig. 152, and the hook was worked supposedlyunder the mesial prominence of the cuspid, and a rubber ring attachedto the loop on the other end, and secured to a lug on the molar band, allas shown in Fig. 152, which is a skiagraph of the case with the appliance.
