REVISITING ANOMALIES IN THE POSITION OF THE MAXILLARY CANINES DURING THE PERIOD OF PERMANENT OCCLUSION (ANALYTICAL SCIENTIFIC LITERATURE REVIEW)

Abstract

The purpose of this work was to analyze current literature on the epidemiology, etiology, pathogenesis and clinical manifestations of anomalies in the position of the maxillary canines' crowns during the period of permanent occlusion. Research papers were studied, opinions and clinical findings of modern domestic and foreign authors were clarified. A systematic review of literature and studies published in the Russian and the English languages in the period from 2000 to 2021 with predominant including data for the last 10 years was carried out. The literature review includes review articles, clinical studies, dissertation research abstracts, retrospective and prospective studies. The use of literary sources published in the period up to 2011 may be justified, since scientific works do not lose their completeness and informativeness against the background of modern scientific literature. The article discusses current views on epidemiology, etiology, development of pathogenesis and clinical differences in anomalies of canine crowns' position in young patients. The lack of homogeneous data on the problem, diagnostic algorithms and approaches to the treatment of patients with anomalies in canine crowns' position in the period of permanent occlusion determines the relevance of further studying the issue.
