Closed exposure with placement of an auxiliary attachment with a chain, followed by traction of the canine with orthodontic forces is commonly clinical used to avoid complications with the open procedure (Kokich 2004). Both open and closed methods and orthodontic treatment are one of the most time-consuming orthodontic treatments. Therefore, it is valuable to try to find methods which can reduce the total treatment time and make the treatments as comfortable as possible for the patient.\n\nTo reduce the treatment time, study I investigates a novel strategy for traction of the canine. Another strategy to reduce the treatment time might be to facilitate the movement of the canine by additional bone removal in the eruption direction out to the alveolar crest. This has been used of a few orthodontists in one clinic for some years. No negative side-effects have been seen. There are, however, no studies for comparison of the two techniques.\n\nAim The primary aims of this Randomized Clinical Trial (RCT) is to evaluate the treatment effectiveness of two different surgical closed exposure techniques of palatally impacted canines before the orthodontic treatment; a) with removal of bone in traction direction and b) without removal of bone in traction direction and to evaluate the anchorage situations.\n\nOutcome variables The outcome variables will be: 1) Treatment time for the canine to be exposed in the oral cavity; 2) Treatment time for the canine to be in the dental arch and 3) Treatment time for the canine to have reached the right position in the dental arch.\n\nSubjects Sixty-six patients between 10-18- years, will be recruited to the study. Patients with palatally impacted maxillary canines are consecutively recruited at three orthodontic clinics in Lund, Karlshamn and Ängelholm.",[28],"Impacted Canines",[30],"impacted maxillary canines","RECRUITING","2025-05-09",{"date":34,"type":35},"2025-05-11","ACTUAL",{"date":37,"type":35},"2025-03-07",{"date":39,"type":22},"2026-07-10",{"name":41,"class":42},"Malmö University","OTHER",2]
