The treatment plan was formulated to extract the lower deciduous teeth, application of the forced eruption with the permanent canines, and extract the upper permanent canines and maintenance of the maxillary deciduous canines. No reshaping of the maxillary deciduous teeth was performed because the patient was satisfied with the results.enAdult patientdeciduous caninesimpacted caninesincluded caninesAdultCuspid --abnormalitiesCuspid --surgeryHumansCuspid --therapyTooth, Impacted --epidemiologyTooth, Impacted --surgeryTooth, Impacted --therapyArticle
