Success rate, treatment duration, and pain perception in the management of palatally impacted canines using the K9 and Ballista spring: a randomized clinical trial

Abstract: Objectives To evaluate the success rate, treatment duration, and pain perceived during forced eruption of maxillary palatally impacted canines using the K9 and Ballista springs. Materials and Methods Thirty unilateral palatal canine impactions of moderate and difficult category as determined by KPG index (score between 10 and 19) were enrolled. Group 1 comprised canine impactions managed with K9 springs, and Group 2 comprised… Show more

“…Several studies have been conducted on the success rates and orthodontic treatment duration of forced eruption. However, most of these studies are limited to the maxillary canines [18][19][20]. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the factors affecting the success of forced eruption, duration of orthodontic treatment of impacted teeth, and causes of re-operation and forced eruption failure in a various teeth and cases.…”

“…In a study by Hui et al [4], the rates of labial impaction were higher among patients with vertical or palatal impaction. Unlike impacted canines, which are caused by genetics, absence of lateral incisors, and abnormal dental germ positioning [5], maxillary central incisor eruption may be blocked by supernumerary teeth, odontomas, dental trauma of primary teeth, follicular cysts and crown-root dilacerations [6,7]. The normal eruption, position, and morphology of maxillary central incisors are important factors of facial esthetics and function of the oral cavity [8].…”
