Exposure of impacted teeth

Aside from third molars, you may have other impacted teeth. The most common one is the canine or the eye tooth. This tooth is very important for masticatory functions and also for aesthetics. This is when you will be referred to us by your orthodontist to surgically expose the tooth and then move it down to align it with the others. We can also help the orthodontist by surgically placing attachments in your mouth to help tooth movement during the orthodontic treatment.
