Resumo

The objective was to perform a literature review that updates the local and general etiological factors of the inclusion of the second molars. It is defined as dental inclusion to the pathological eruptive process by which tooth is surrounded by pericoronal sack, preserving its bone bed intact and producing his absence in the dental arch. Though this phenomenon is quite common in some groups of teeth as third molars, upper canines or lower premolars, the inclusion of the second molar, with a prevalence next to 0,03-0,21%, it turns out to still being a challenge for oral surgeons and for orthodontists. For the prevention of this type of alterations, periodic check-ups are necessary during the beginning of the dental transition period in order to detect some type of eruptive anomaly and to perform an early orthodontic treatment. The local factor that most affects this type of pathology seems to be the lack of space, while genetic abnormalities would be the main responsible for producing the inclusion of the second molar from the systemic and general point of view according to the most recent studies.
