Summary

This study was conducted to compare the periodontal health of labially and palatally impacted maxillary canines with similar mesio-distal displacement, perpendicular distance, and angulation, and to compare them with the contralateral canines that served as control teeth. Two null hypothesis were tested: (1) there are no differences in attached and keratinized gingival widths and gingival thickness between impacted teeth and controls, and (2) there are no differences in attached and keratinized gingival widths and gingival thickness of labially and palatally impacted canines.

Conditions

  • Impacted Canines
  • Orthodontic Treatment
  • Gingival Thickness

Interventions

PROCEDURE

closed eruption technique

The impacted teeth treated with closed eruption technique firstly. Orthodontic traction started a week later the sutures were removed. When the crown of the maxillary impacted canine was fully visible in the mouth, its bracket was inserted, and aligned within the dental arch using double-arch technique. Posttreatment plaque index, gingival index, gingival bleeding index, probing depth, and keratinized and attached gingival width and gingival thickness measurements of the impacted canines and controls were performed. The measurements compared with the contralateral canines that served as control teeth.
