Correction of Embedded Maxillary Canine with Orthodontic Treatment: A Case Report
Correction of Embedded Maxillary Canine
Keywords:
embedded maxillary canine, orthodontic treatment, fixed orthodontic appliance, artificial eruptionAbstract
Embedded maxillary canine is frequently encountered, the incidence is 1-2% of the population. Embedded maxillary canine has been found with higher incidence among females, occurring twice as commonly as males. Eighty five percent of embedded maxillary canine occurs palatally and 15% buccally. The management of embedded maxillary canine usually either done by surgical exposure and artificial eruption or surgical extraction. This report presents orthodontic treatment by fixed orthodontic appliance and surgical exposure for artificial eruption with closed eruption technique of embedded maxillary canine in 14-year-old Thai female patient, who had buccally embedded right maxillary canine and prolonged retention of right primary canine. As a result, the embedded maxillary canine was moved into normal position. Good dental alignment was obtained with a good occlusion and stability. The treatment period was four years and retention period was one year
