Management of Ectopically Erupting Maxillary Central Incisor Using Removable Appliance
Journal Title: International Journal of Health Sciences and Research - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 5
Abstract
Ectopic eruption is a deviation from normal eruption pattern. The occurrence of ectopic eruption is most commonly associated with maxillary incisors. The normal eruption, position and morphology of these teeth are crucial to craniofacial development, facial esthetics as well as for phonetics. Various etiological factors may be responsible for ectopic eruption of teeth, so their management depends on the correction of the established etiological factor. The present case report describes a case of ectopically erupting right central incisor with incisal edge encased within inner soft tissue of upper lip, which was treated by removable orthodontic appliance.
