Abstract
The impaction of maxillary canines is a spread condition, with a prevalence in females. The treatment necessity is mainly related to the aesthetic and functional roles played by these teeth, but also to the possible development of sequelae over time. The gold standard in pediatric patients is the interceptive treatment, but in adults, orthodontic treatment might not be indicated and autotransplantation, when possible, may provide the best solution.
