The management of the palatally ectopic maxillary canine : 2004
نویسنده
چکیده
The maxillary canine is second only to the mandibular third molar in its frequency of impaction. The prevalence is about 1.5% and the canine becomes ectopic more often palatally than buccally with over double the frequency. Management of this condition often faces general dental practitioners and orthodontic specialists. Mismanagement and failures in diagnosis may be costly in terms of clinical time (both for the practitioner and patient) and in litigation (if damage occurs to adjacent teeth and proceeds unchecked).

AIM To analyze the interrelationship between incisor width, deviations in the dentition and available space in the dental arch in palatally and labially located maxillary ectopic canine cases.

Objectives: This study aimed to compare the efficacy of panoramic radiography and the buccal object rule in intraoral periapical radiography for localization of impacted maxillary canine teeth. Methods: A total of 20 panoramic radiographs depicting 28 displaced maxillary canines were evaluated. The ratio of the mesiodistal width of the impacted canine to the mesiodistal width of the...
متن کاملEctopic eruption of the maxillary canine quantified in three dimensions on cephalometric radiographs between the ages of 5 and 15 years.
The eruption paths of 20 ectopic maxillary canine teeth (10 right, 10 left) were measured in three dimensions on annual lateral and depressed postero-anterior cephalometric radiographs of 15 patients between the ages of 5 and 15 years and compared with the eruption of normal canines. It was found that between the ages of 8 and 12 years ectopic canines on the left side moved more anteriorly than...
متن کاملWITHDRAWN: Extraction of primary (baby) teeth for unerupted palatally displaced permanent canine teeth in children.
BACKGROUND The permanent canine tooth in the maxillary (upper) jaw sometimes does not erupt into the mouth correctly. In about 1% to 3% of the population these teeth will be diverted into the roof of the mouth (palatally). It has been suggested that if the primary canine is removed at the right time this palatal eruption might be avoided. This is an update of a Cochrane review first published i...
