Canine Disimpaction Minor Surgical Procedure

Sometimes, even canines or other teeth might be found impacted in one’s mouth. This occurs when the teeth do not erupt in their right place due to certain developmental difficulties. Resting unseen inside the bone, they might start exerting pressure in certain cases, and that is when they are likely to cause infection. In such cases, as in the case study below, their removal is their only cure.
