The combination therapy of an upper permanent impacted canine. Case report
2013
: The impaction of the upper canine is the second most common type of developmental anomaly following the impaction of the third molars. The authors have diagnosed the impaction of the left upper canine in the case of a 17 year-old female patient. The failure of the eruption resulting in tooth spacing of the 23 teeth mainly caused esthetical problems for the young patient and her firm request was the treatment of the spacing caused by the residual canine. The authors on the basis of the clinical and radiological examinations prepared the plans of combination therapy of oral surgery and orthodontic therapy, which were welcomed both by the patient, and her parents. The authors by describing the individual steps of the combination therapy and with the presentation of the achieved results' illustrations will review the good esthetical and functional achievements.
