Inclusione dei canini mascellari permanenti e riassorbimento radicolare degli incisivi: prevenzione e aspetti medico-legali

Eruption of the ectopic permanent canines can be facilitated with early extraction of the primary maxillary canines (and possibly the primary first molars). This approach can prevent impaction (which requires more complicated, prolonged, and biologically expensive treatment) and limit the risk of root resorption involving the adjacent teeth (an event that causes irreversible damage and may give rise to medicolegal litigation).
