Abstract

Introduction: Most permanent teeth erupt and establish proper occlusion. In some cases, the permanent teeth have a problem in the eruption and remain impacted in bone.There are two possibilities. 1. Extraction of impacted tooth and its replacement implant or a prosthetic replacement, 2. Surgical release of the impacted teeth and orthodontic traction in the dental arch. The time of treatment, type of surgery release impacted teeth, orthodontic techniques and possible problems during treatment, depending on the type of the impacted tooth and its location. Case report: Clinical examination 14-year-old patients concluded the lack of maxillary canine teeth in the dental arch. Panoramic image showed bilateral canine impaction in the upper jaw. The analysis of X-ray image was recorded axial and in the middle alveolar position of both the impacted tooth. This is why we chose the of closed eruption method. Discussion: Impacted maxillary canines, the middle alveolar ridge treated by closed eruption, except for a slight increase in clinical crown of the tooth does not show other changes deteriorate.
