Lateral Incisor: Overtaking Others from behind
Journal Title: Journal of Advances in Medicine and Medical Research - Year 2017, Vol 22, Issue 7
Abstract
In order to preserve the integrity of the dental arch, repositioning of the displaced lateral incisors to their normal position next to the central incisors should be considered. The conventional method for aligning ectopic lateral incisor is to tie the ectopic teeth with the help of a ligature wire to the initial aligning round-NiTi wire, which is the base wire or by engaging open coil spring. This would take more time to align the ectopic tooth. Hence we are presenting here 3 cases (Figs. 1-3) of lingually placed lateral incisor & will evaluate the best technique to align them properly.
