Transmigration of mandibular canine - case report.
[]
Transmigration
is
a
phenomenon
of
movement
of
an
unerupted
tooth
in
the
bone
across
the
midline
.
This
anomaly
is
not
often
found
.
Transmigration
is
more
prevalent
in
females
than
in
males
,
and
more
often
encountered
in
the
mandible
than
maxilla
,
it
affects
mostly
canines
.
The
aim
of
this
study
was
to
present
a
case
report
of
a
mandibular
canine
transmigration
in
a
patient
aged
12
.
Intraoral
examination
determined
hypodontia
of
right
second
premolar
and
delayed
eruption
of
left
second
premolar
in
maxilla
,
as
well
as
persistent
deciduous
teeth
:
right
second
molar
,
left
canine
and
second
molar
.
The
patient
was
referred
for
a
Cone-
Beam
CT
examination
,
which
allowed
precise
visualization
of
the
transmigrating
canine
as
well
as
ruled
out
resorption
of
roots
of
mandibular
incisors
.
The
treatment
with
a
maxillary
fixed
orthodontic
appliance
was
finished
after
obtaining
a
satisfactory
result
.
Proper
alignment
of
the
incisors
in
the
anterior
-
posterior
plane
and
correct
midline
position
were
accepted
by
the
patient
.
Transmigrating
canine
after
consultation
with
the
surgeon
was
designed
to
further
radiological
observation
.
