Abstract

Introduction: Any permanent tooth may become impacted. In cases of anterior teeth impaction, the harmony and aesthetics of a smile are sometimes diminished. There are three main treatment options: observation (no treatment), relocation (orthodontic therapy or surgical) and extraction. Objective: The objective of this case report is to discuss the various treatment possibilities towards bilateral maxillary canine impaction as well as to explain the clinical considerations that must be taken into account. Case description: This paper presents a clinical situation of bilateral maxillary canine impaction solved by the extraction of both teeth and followed by the placement of ceramic crowns on the deciduous canines, as well as a corrective gingivectomy. Conclusion: Despite some difficulties emerged during the treatment such as the low position of the gingival margin, the authors believe that the multidisciplinary approach of the treatment described is one good option to achieve a pleasant smile and functional occlusion.

Resumo

Introdução: Qualquer dente pode se tornar permanentemente impactado. Nos casos de dentes anteriores impactados, a harmonia e a estética de um sorriso pode ser diminuída. Existem três opções principais: a observação (sem tratamento), o deslocamento (tratamento ortodôntico ou cirúrgico) e a extração. Objetivo: O objetivo deste trabalho é discutir as várias possibilidades de tratamento para os casos de caninos maxilares impactados bilateral, bem como para explicar os aspectos clínicos que devem ser levados em consideração. Descrição do caso: Este trabalho descreve uma situação clínica de impactação dos dois caninos maxilares, resolvida através da extração de ambos os caninos permanentes, seguida da colocação de coroas cerâmicas nos caninos decíduos, após gengivectomia. Conclusão: Apesar de terem surgido algumas dificuldades durante o tratamento, tais como a baixa posição da margem gengival, a abordagem multidisciplinar do tratamento descrito foi adequada para alcançar um sorriso agradável e uma oclusão funcional.
