Alteraciones en la Erupción de Caninos Permanentes

Abstract

This study describes the alterations in the eruption of the permanent canines, etiology, early diagnosis and therapeutic possibilities. The canine one gathers all the problems of space that can exist in the arches and is frequent the eruption in a high zone. The inclusion of the canine has a complex etiology, favored by evolutionary, anatomical and mechanical factors. The mandibular impaction is less frequent and its incidence is described less like twenty times than the impaction of the maxilar canine one. The ectopic eruption of maxillary canines can be associated to the reabsorbing by the roots of the adjacent incisors. From 8 to 10 years begins to be noticed the prominence of the canine in the bottom of vestibule The most used radiographies methods are the panoramic x-ray, oclusals and periapicals with techniques of vertical tube and other angles. At the present time it is helpful the computed tomography. The term "early treatment" implies a therapeutic action in early stages of development, when the pathology can be intercepted or stopped, and the most used are exodontias of temporary canines and serial extraction. In conclusion, the canine alterations of the eruption of permanent involve knowledge of the normality parameters, chronology and sequence, along with the development of complementary tests, to carry out an early and pertinent evaluation and to avoid the complications derived from an impacted tooth.
