Periodontal surgical management of impacted maxillary cuspids
Abstract
The diagnosis and surgical management of impacted maxillary cuspids has been discussed. The general practitioner must be aware of the normal and abnormal pathways as well as the correct age of eruption of the maxillary cuspid. The proper management of impacted maxillary canine teeth requires the careful cooperation and communication between the general practitioner, the orthodontist and the periodontist or oral surgeon.
