| dc.description.abstract | Mandibular canine impaction and transmigration have serious
consequences for the patient, as removal of the tooth or teeth in
question is often the only solution. The loss of one or both mandibular
canines complicates orthodontic treatment. Early warning
signs of mandibular canine ectopia are explored in this paper as
well as how to assess the potential for displacement, impaction
and/or transmigration. This paper highlights the value of interceptive
treatment once the early signs of an aberrant mandibular
canine have been detected. | en_US |
