The canines are extremely relevant elements in the dental arch, justifying the great aesthetic and functional importance. However, its eruption pathway is long and complex, one of the causes described in the literature to justify ectopic eruption and impaction of permanent superior canines, especially in the palatal region. The impaction of the upper canines is defined when the tooth does not erupt after six months of the root being completely formed. This impaction can lead to several pathologies in untreated patients. That is why the ideal age to diagnose is between 10 and 12 years. The excellence of the treatment translates into the correction of occlusion, smile harmony, periodontal health and post-treatment stability. . Surgical techniques along with orthodontic treatment are widely used for correct positioning in the arcade. Thus, this work aims to show, through a literature review and clinical case report, orthodontic-surgical techniques for traction of impacted and or included canines.
