“…5,8,10,11 Although transpositions are associated with increased frequency of other dental anomalies, supporting a genetic etiology, 1 there are no other dental anomalies here. The etiology of this transposition case is unclear.…”

“…As a general rule, it is not advisable to correct a transposed tooth order because of insufficient buccopalatal width of bone support when two adjacent teeth are moving in different directions, especially after eruption. 1,8,[15][16][17] Although keeping the transposed order of the teeth is suggested in MxC.P1, recent case reports 13,14,18,19 have demonstrated nonextraction reposition of transposed teeth. We restored the natural tooth order using similar mechanics as described in these articles.…”

“…[6][7][8] Among the many types of transpositions, maxillary canine-premolar transposition is clearly the most frequent type, so it has been the one most often reported. 3,[6][7][8][9] It is called a complete transposition if both the crown and the entire root structure of the involved teeth are found parallel in their transposed position. It is called an incomplete transposition if the transposition is of the crown, but not the root apex.…”

Maxillary canine premolar transposition is the most frequently reported transposition type, which many orthodontists face. Although correcting the transposed tooth order is not advised after the eruption of the permanent tooth, several articles published in the last decade demonstrated nonextraction treatment of transposition using fixed mechanics. This article describes the nonextraction treatment of a complete transposition between a maxillary left canine and a first premolar, using similar mechanics as suggested earlier. The correct tooth order was established with a functional Class I canine and molar relationship at the end of treatment. Although triangular cortical bone resorption at the vestibule of the canine root was detected on computed tomography at the end of treatment, spontaneous regeneration of bone tissue at the resorption area was present on the postretention computed tomography scan.

“…It was defi ned by roots, or the development or eruption of a tooth in a position occupied normally by a non-adjacent tooth. The maxillary canine is the most commonly involved tooth [1][2][3][4] where in most of the cases it changes its eruptive place with a lateral incisor or a first premolar. The incidence of tooth transposition has been reported to be about 0.4%.…”

“…[1][2][3][4][5] It is identified as complete transposition, when the crowns and the roots of the involved teeth exchange places in the dental arch, and as an incomplete transposition when the crowns are transposed but the roots remain in their normal positions. 1 The prevalence of transposition is about 0.4%.…”
