Exposure of impacted teeth

Displaced canines and other impacted teeth usually cannot erupt on their own. In close cooperation with your orthodontist we gently expose the tooth and attach a bracket, so that it can be guided into the dental arch in a controlled manner.

As part of orthodontic treatment we expose displaced canines or wisdom teeth so that they can be aligned into place.
