Transmigration of impacted mandibular cuspids.

Transmigration of impacted mandibular cuspid is a rare finding. A cuspid is classified as "transmigrated" when more than half of its length has passed the mid-line. 13 cases of transmigration of impacted mandibular cuspids are presented, 3 of which occurred in pairs, raising the total number of teeth to 16. Radiographs showed positions ranging from a vertical impaction, to a cuspid having crossed the mid-line completely, reaching the first molar area of the opposite side.
