“…11,19 Canine teeth that are subject to severe horizontal impaction in a labial position are less likely to erupt properly, even after the cause of impaction is eliminated. 20 Surprisingly in this case, the orientation of impacted canine changed from horizontal to slight vertical with the span of 2 years. Later the canine was tracted to it's position followed by surgical exposure from the labial side without having any root resorption of it's adjacent teeth.…”

Management of skeletal class II relation in growing patient require careful evaluation of growth status, proper diagnosis and treatment plan to address the patient’s need. Twin block is the appliance of choice among functional appliance to correct the skeletal class II malocclusion due to it’s acceptability by the patient and simplified design. Maxillary canine impaction is the second most prevalent impaction after the third molars. Treatment of maxillary canine impaction is usually a challenge to orthodontic approach as the defect lies in the esthetic region of the jaw. This case report describes the orthodontic management of a 9 years male patient having skeletal Class II malocclusion with horizontally impacted maxillary canine. Some modifications in the treatment mechanics are deemed essential to address the patient’s need for achieving the optimal esthetic and to improve the occlusion. Twin block is beneficial for the treatment of skeletal malocclusion in a growing patient to achieve the maximum benefit. The orientation of impacted teeth may change from horizontal to favorable one, hence it should be considered a viable treatment alternative. In such case, early diagnosis and interception at the right time along with radiographic follow-ups are necessary to achieve successful results.

“…The anterior teeth are more susceptible to tipping and rotation, leading to misalignment and crowding in the anterior segment. 26 27 The individual changes in the retromolar region and arch dimensions were crucial in reducing or increasing the anterior segment of the lower arch. 17 This suggests that variations in arch dimensions may contribute to the development of dental crowding.…”

Objectives This study aimed to investigate the potential impact of arch dimensions and unerupted third molars on mandibular anterior segment crowding. Materials and Methods This study included a total of 240 subjects with an average age of 18 years seeking orthodontic treatment. Panoramic radiographs, alginate impressions, and study models were taken for measurements. This study utilized the Ganss ratio to calculate the ratio of retromolar space to the width of the crown of the third molar, along with other measurements such as intercanine and intermolar widths, arch perimeter, and arch length to assess dental arch dimensions. Results We found that the Ganss ratio and angle B values on both the right and left sides were significantly different between the noncrowding and crowding groups, suggesting a potential role for third molars in mandibular anterior segment crowding. Additionally, there was an increase in angle A on both sides in the crowding group, indicating a more acute angle between the anterior teeth. This study also observed a reduction in the retromolar space on the third molars in the crowding group, further supporting the potential role of third molars in mandibular anterior segment crowding. Conclusion The findings of our study provide substantial evidence to suggest that third molars may contribute to mandibular anterior segment crowding. These findings highlight the importance of carefully evaluating dental arch dimensions and the presence of third molars when assessing and treating mandibular anterior segment crowding.

“…La erupción vestibular del canino maxilar está fuertemente asociada con la falta de espacio o el apiñamiento del arco alveolar, largos periodos de erupción, discrepancias del arco dentario maxilar, posiciones anormales, anquilosis, trauma o alteraciones patológicas como quistes entre otras, así como el desplazamiento del folículo dentario, aumento de la presión intravascular dentro del germen dentario, falla en la reabsorción radicular del canino temporal e incluso procesos infecciosos crónicos (13). El 2% de la población puede tener caninos superiores impactados, y esta condición es dos veces más frecuente en mujeres que en hombres (14 -15).…”

Los dientes caninos superiores permanentes impactados bilaterales son un problema clínico que puede provocar una serie de secuelas irreversibles como la reabsorción radicular de dientes vecinos. Se describe el caso de una paciente con ausencia clínica de caninos superiores que se encontraban impactados orientados hacia vestibular produciendo reabsorción de los dos tercios de la raíces de todos los incisivosSuperiores,los que fueron extraídos, en el mismo acto se realizó la exposición quirúrgica de los dos dientes caninos y posteriormente la tracción ortodontica de los caninos impactados, en el maxilar inferior se realizaron extracción de primeras premolares inferiores para compensar las extracciones que se realizaron en el maxilar superior.Ocho meses fueron necesarios para observar clínicamente las piezas impactadas. El tiempo de tratamiento fue de 2 años, al finalizar el tratamiento ortodoncicose realizó una ameloplastia de las cúspides de los caninos para dar forma de incisivos laterales.
