Root resorption and the impacted canine.

This article considers the incidence and outcome of incisor root resorption in cases where the upper permanent canine is impacted. A review of the associated factors indicates that it is not possible to predict when resorption will occur and so all impacted canines, whether buccal or palatal, should be regarded as potentially damaging. The management is discussed and illustrated by showing some examples.
