Kissing canines associated with dentigerous cyst, a case report of transmigrated bilateral impacted mandibular canines

Journal Title: International Journal of Oral and Craniofacial Science - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1

Abstract

Transmigration, a phenomenon most often involving mandibular canine, refers to the migration of an unerupted tooth from its normal position to the contralateral side. Bilateral mandibular canine impaction with transmigration is a rare occurrence. These canines may exhibit kissing phenomenon in the radiograph. Very few cases of bilaterally impacted canines associated with dentigerous cyst have been reported. The case reported here deals with the management of kissing canines associated with dentigerous cyst.
