IMPACTED CANINE EXPOSURES

PURPOSE

PROCEDURE DETAILS

PROCEDURE DETAILS

An impacted tooth simply means that the tooth is "stuck" in the jaw and cannot erupt into the mouth. The canine tooth is the 2nd most common, behind a wisdom tooth, to become impacted. The periodontist and orthodontist work harmoniously to aid in the eruption process. 

PROCEDURE DETAILS

PROCEDURE DETAILS

PROCEDURE DETAILS

  • One to two hours in length with the use of local anesthetic.
  • The periodontist will remove bone and gum tissue to allow for the attachment of a bracket & chain to the archwire. The orthodontist will now be able to pull the tooth into perfect alignment.

RECOVERY TIME

PROCEDURE DETAILS

RECOVERY TIME

Approximately 1-2 days. Every patient differs on level of discomfort.
