Abstract
Bilateral transmigration of impacted mandibular permanent canines,an extremely uncommon occurrence.The mid-symphyseal region is where,the intraosseous tooth migration takes place.The tooth does not erupt in its usual occusal position and it crosses the mandible\'s midline. Here, a 28 year old male reported to the department of oral surgery,with chief complaints of pain and sensitivity in the lower front teeth region since 1 month. The mandibular right and left deciduous canines were seen to be retained on intraoral inspection. Orthopantomogram revealed mandibular right and left horizontal impacted permanent canines migrated towards the midline and situated below the apices of incisives.The two impacted canines were surgically removed,along with retained deciduous canines were also extracted out normally under local anaesthesia and under preoperative intravenous antibiotic medications. A follow-up on the patient is underway.
