NCT02675036

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to see whether extraction of the primary canine tooth or extraction of both the primary canine - and the primary first molar tooth is most effective in the treatment of palatally ectopic canine teeth in the maxilla. In addition the study will also measure pain and discomfort in relation to these two treatment alternatives.
