“…Dentofacial features should be well established. 9 Consequently, the primary function of orthodontists is to align the impacted canines. 68 Treatment of impacted canines is a major challenge and lengthy orthodontic treatment mechanics that most of the time require an interdisciplinary treatment approach involving specialists from various disciplines such as orthodontists, oral surgeons, pediatric dentists, periodontists, and general dentists cooperating to successfully manage this condition and place the tooth in its correct position.…”

“…20 Furthermore, impacted canines can impact dental health by causing root resorption in adjacent teeth; therefore, early detection is essential. 31,9 In other words, resorption of adjacent tooth roots may be a significant result of an irregular path of canine eruption within the dental alveolar process, compromising the longevity of these teeth. 12,73 A higher degree of canine displacement may be related to severe incisor root resorption.…”

“…The cumulative score is used to predict the treatment's difficulty. Every impaction was graded into four levels: easy (0-7), moderate (8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14), difficult (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19), and extremely difficult (20+). Four canines were graded as easy, eleven as moderate, nine as difficult, and four as extremely difficult.…”

This review covers all aspects from the viewpoint of impacted canines that were missed by some articles. Most review studies focus on the epidemiology and incidence of the disease but rarely on the detailed investigation of this therapeutic disorder; therefore, appropriate awareness of canine impaction diagnosis and management is critical prior to any orthosurgical treatment procedures. Hence, it is crucial to emphasize the means of proper diagnosis and interception of this clinical condition. This study aimed to compare and review the various diagnostic methods used to identify canine impaction, its advantages, shortcomings, research, and clinical implications to guide the evaluation and management of cases in general dental practice. Based on the current literature, the epidemiology of canine impaction, diagnosis, classification systems, and surgical options for exposing impacted canines are discussed. To determine the anatomical position of impacted canines, a thorough clinical examination and appropriate diagnostic imaging should be performed. The surgical method for exposing impacted canines should consider the tooth’s anatomical position in regard to the alveolar ridge and the amount of keratinized mucosa/gingiva. The article concludes that displacement and non-eruption of impacted canines can be managed by administering an accurate and adequate diagnosis of canine impaction, proper investigation of tooth position, length, direction, and related structures, selecting the appropriate management approach, and also reducing the biomechanics involved during canine retraction using fixed orthodontic appliances when they are impacted, and thus can restrict the risk of s urgical t rauma o n t he a djacent h ard a nd s oft t issues in th e p atients .

The cytotoxicity properties of Kaempferia galanga extracts were studied. Crude extracts of the rhizome were obtained by extraction with methanol (KGM), petroleum ether (KGPE) and ethyl acetate (KGEA). Meanwhile, the essential oil (KGEO) was produced by steam distillation method. The aim of the present work was to screen the cytotoxic activity of K. galanga extracts and essential oil on cervical cancer C33A cell line. The cytotoxic activities were assessed on C33A cell line using MTT and scratch assays. Results of MTT assay showed that KGEA and KGM were the most cytotoxic at 1000 µg mL -1 with cell viabilities of 11 and 14 %, respectively. Lower cytotoxic activities were shown by KGPE and KGEO with 64 and 88 % cell viability, respectively. Meanwhile, KGEA was slightly cytotoxic at concentration of 500 µg mL -1 with cell viability of 70 %. However, all the extracts were able to inhibit or at least slow down cell growth when tested using the scratch assay. It can be concluded that K. galanga seems to have cytotoxic properties and may be used as an anticancer agent.

Although impacted canines concerning dental arch have been analyzed in prior studies. However, there is a lack of evidence to analyze the impact of impacted canines on dental arch characteristics using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) models; therefore, knowing the impact of impacted canines on the dental arch can enhance awareness, contribute knowledge, and aid clinicians in managing impacted canine cases. Hence, it is critical to emphasize the strategies of proper diagnosis and interception for this clinical condition prior to any orthosurgical treatment procedures. This study aimed to analyze the impact of impacted canines on dental arch characteristics in orthodontic patients using CBCT. The method used was the review of clinical records of 350 patients with impacted canines who had CBCT scans and visited the dental clinics for orthodontic treatment pertaining to their arch by dividing them into a control group and a study group. The results revealed a significant relationship based on the dental arch dimension; inter first premolar width (IPW) (P = 0.012), inter first molar width (IMW) (P = 0.010), arch length (AL) (P = 0.041), palatal height (PH) (P = 0.019), and palatal height index (PHI) (P = 0.020). The article concludes that patients with impacted canines had significant changes in dental arch dimension compared to the control group. Dental arch dimensions were significantly deficient, with a higher palatal vault seen in impacted canine patients. The anatomical position of impacted canines has an effect on the dental arches and adjacent anatomical structures. These three-dimensional (3D) findings may provide clinical reference data for impacted canines and provide a valuable basis for delivering information and education on impacted canines assessment and treatment. CPD/Clinical Relevance: Canine impactions are common during routine examinations. Understanding the influence of impacted canines on the dental arch will help clinicians manage impacted canine patients.
