Brief Summary

This research project is important because there is no gold standard to rely on regarding the effect of the extraction of primary canines as an interceptive treatment for children with mesioangular displaced canines. Further investigations are needed to assess the impact of extractions of primary canines approach on the eruption rate or change in position of mesioangular displaced canines by comparing to non-extraction control group in an attempt to overcome the deficiencies in study designs of previously published studies.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Successful eruption of maxillary permanent canines into the dental arch

    The successful outcome is the eruption of maxillary permanent canines within 12 months into the dental arch

    12 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Successful improvement of permanent canine position radiographically

    12 months

Study Arms (2)

Extraction of primary canines only

EXPERIMENTAL

A total of 43 patients with unilateral mesioangular displaced maxillary canines Interceptive treatment: Extraction of both maxillary primary canines will be held at baseline visit At Baseline (T0): Clinical examinatiion + CBCT scan and then both primary canines will be extracted At 6 month follow-up (T1): Clinical examination only At 12 month follow-up: Clinical examination +/- CBCT scan Treatment Plan : * If displaced canine is not erupted and no improvement in position radiographically is noticed, patient will be referred to orthodontic/oral surgery department * If Canine is emerged to oral cavity: No further CBCT scan will be taken * If Position of canine is improved radiographically: Follow up untill canine emerges, total observation time is 18 months

Procedure: Extraction of primary canines

Control group- no extraction

NO INTERVENTION

A total of 43 patients with unilateral mesioangular displaced maxillary canines At Baseline (T0): Clinical examinatiion + CBCT scan , no extraction At 6 month follow-up (T1): Clinical examination At 12 month follow-up: Clinical examination +/- CBCT scan Treatment Plan : * If displaced canine is not erupted and no improvement in position radiographically is noticed, patient will be referred to orthodontic/oral surgery department * If Canine is emerged to oral cavity: No further CBCT scan will be taken * If Position of canine is improved radiographically: Follow up untill canine emerges, total observation time is 18 months

Interventions

At Baseline (T0): Clinical examinatiion + CBCT scan and then both primary canines will be extracted At 6 month follow-up (T1): Clinical examination only At 12 month follow-up: Clinical examination +/- CBCT scan Treatment Plan : * If displaced canine is not erupted and no improvement in position radiographically is noticed, patient will be referred to orthodontic/oral surgery department * If Canine is emerged to oral cavity: No further CBCT scan will be taken * If Position of canine is improved radiographically: Follow up untill canine emerges, total observation time is 18 months

Extraction of primary canines only

Eligibility Criteria

Age9 Years - 12 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsChild (0-17)

You may qualify if:

  • Age of patients at diagnosis should be between 9 and 12 years old
  • Presence of firm maxillary primary canines
  • Identification of maxillary unilateral or bilateral mesioangular displaced maxillary canine by clinical examination .
  • Canine position will be confirmed by means of horizontal tube shift following Clark's rule using two peripaical radiographs of the canine region.

You may not qualify if:

  • Any systemic condition, craniofacial syndromes or cleft lip and/or palate.
  • Severe canine displacement according to Power and Short (Power and Short, 1993). This includes complete overlap of the canine relative to adjacent incisor and beyond (Stage 3). Severe angulation relative to the midline. Canine crown vertical height is above the full length of adjacent incisors roots (see index below for illustrations).
  • Severe Resorption of adjacent teeth, grade 3 or 4 according to Ericson and Kurol at baseline or during the trial (Ericson and Kurol, 2000).
  • Presence of pathology surrounding the canine (such as cyst, supernumerary, odontome).
  • Closed apex of mesioangular displaced canine
