Abstract

Permanent canines play a fundamental role in facial appearance, dental aesthetics, arch development, and functional occlusion. The process of eruption of the permanent canines leading to their final positioning in the oral cavity is complex and the longest of all the permanent teeth making it more prone to impaction. There is a need for its impaction to be properly diagnosed and managed. The orthodontists have played an important rule and are proved successful in treating them. This article reviews classification, complications, diagnosis, and treatment modalities in the management of impacted maxillary canines.
