Impacted Canines Treatment

Expert Management for Optimal Dental Alignment and Health. Impacted canines treatment is a specialized dental service offered at Santa Ana Dental Specialists, addressing a common orthodontic issue where the canine teeth fail to emerge properly into their correct position. Canine teeth, crucial for biting and tearing food, are often referred to as cornerstone teeth due to their importance in dental alignment and function.

When these teeth become impacted, they can lead to a range of complications, including misalignment of other teeth, cyst formation, and even damage to adjacent teeth. Our experienced dental team provides expert care for impacted canines, using a combination of orthodontic and surgical techniques to guide them into their proper place.

Resolving Impacted Canines with Precision & Care

Identifying and Assessing Impacted Canines
Early detection and treatment are key in managing impacted canines. We use advanced imaging techniques to precisely locate the impacted teeth and assess their position in relation to other teeth and structures. This detailed evaluation allows us to develop a customized treatment plan that addresses the specific needs of each patient.

Collaborative Approach for Effective Treatment
Treating impacted canines often involves a collaborative effort between our orthodontists and oral surgeons. The treatment typically starts with orthodontic therapy to create sufficient space in the dental arch for the impacted tooth. This may include the use of braces or other orthodontic appliances. In cases where the canine is unable to erupt on its own, a minor surgical procedure is performed to expose the tooth and, if necessary, attach an orthodontic bracket. This bracket, along with a gentle force applied by orthodontic treatment, guides the canine into its correct position.
