Bilateral mandibular impaction: A case report and review of literature
Abstract
Impacted tooth refers to a tooth that fails to erupt in the dental arch in its normal position due to its surrounding structures. Multiple local and systemic factors influence this condition. Impaction of mandibular permanent lateral incisor and canine on either side is rare phenomenon in dental practice. As they are positioned in aesthetic and functionally important zone, treatment is quite challenging and requires multidisciplinary intervention.
