Abstract
Mr B, aged 16, with no particular prior history, consulted us about the unsightly positioning of his upper right canine, which had begun to trouble him (fig. 1 a). His family dentist had suggested that no action be taken and the tooth simply observed because there seemed to be enough space for it in the arch in spite of slight mesiopositioning of the lateral sectors (fig. 1 b, 1 c). But the patient was in despair: for two years the tooth had not budged. He asked for immediate orthodontic treatment. DOI: 10.1051/odfen/2010108
