What is canine exposure?
Canine exposure is a specialized dental procedure designed to facilitate the eruption of impacted canines. This treatment is typically performed on children aged 11 to 15 and involves carefully revealing the impacted tooth, encouraging it to assume its rightful position within the dental arch.
Canine exposure is a collaborative effort between periodontists and orthodontists and helps encourage favorable outcomes.
