  • Title: Impacted maxillary canines--a study of surgically treated patients over 20 years of age.
    Author: Nordenram A.
    Journal: Swed Dent J; 1987; 11(4):153-8. PubMed ID: 3480613.
    Abstract:
    The prevalence of impacted maxillary canines is about 1-3 per cent. They comprise therefore, an essential part of the oral surgeon's work. There are very few published surveys of oral surgery case material, particularly in adults, in which preoperative condition, treatment and postoperative sequelae are considered. Therefore the author has reported a material of 100 impacted maxillary canines in patients over 20 years of age, surgically treated during 1980-85 at the Department of Oral Surgery, Karolinska Institute, Stockholm. Records and radiographs have been studied and parameters such as preoperative pathologic findings, position of the impacted teeth, indications for treatment, kind of treatment and postoperative consequences have been investigated.
