Abstract
A case of a mesiodens in the vault of the palate of a skull estimated to be approximately
13,000 years old is presented. The currently cited theories of tooth eruption were
considered, and it was concluded that only the newly formulated BVT (blood vessel
thrust) theory of tooth eruption can account for the migration of this mesiodens into
that position.
