Impacted Canine

An impacted canine is a permanent upper or lower canine tooth that is trapped beneath the gum tissue or bone and unable to erupt into its normal position in the dental arch. This can occur due to various reasons, such as overcrowding, abnormal tooth development, or blockage by other teeth. Impacted canines can lead to misalignment issues, damage to adjacent teeth, pain, and even cyst formation if left untreated. 

• Allows the canine to fulfill its important role in biting and guiding other teeth.
• Improves overall bite alignment and function.
• Enhances smile aesthetics by filling in missing spaces.
• Reduces the risk of damage to neighboring teeth.
• Prevents potential complications like cysts or infections.
• Alleviates any pain or pressure associated with the impaction
