Transmigration of mandibular canine teeth is a rare dental anomaly characterized by the tooth's aberrant migration through the alveolar bone. This deviation from the expected eruption pathway can lead to tooth impaction, root resorption, periodontal problems, and aesthetic concerns. The exact cause of transmigration is not fully understood, but it is believed to be influenced by a combination of genetic, developmental, and environmental factors. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment are essential to prevent complications and achieve optimal functional and aesthetic outcomes. This case report presents a 19-year-old female with impacted left mandibular canine teeth. An interdisciplinary approach involving orthodontic therapy and surgical exposure to disimpact the transmigrated canine into the normal occlusal position. The treatment utilized modified orthodontic mechanics, including uprighting springs and temporary anchorage devices (TADs) to treat transmigration. This case also highlights the importance of early diagnosis and timely intervention for transmigrated canine teeth to prevent complications and achieve optimal aesthetic and functional outcomes.
下颌尖牙异位萌出是一种罕见的牙齿异常，其特征是牙齿通过牙槽骨发生异常移位。这种与预期萌出路径的偏差可导致牙齿阻生、牙根吸收、牙周问题和美观问题。异位萌出的确切原因尚未完全明确，但据信是由遗传、发育和环境因素共同影响所致。早期诊断和适当治疗对于预防并发症以及实现最佳的功能和美观效果至关重要。本病例报告介绍了一名19岁的女性，其左下颌尖牙阻生。采用了一种跨学科方法，包括正畸治疗和手术暴露，以使异位萌出的尖牙萌出到正常咬合位置。治疗采用了改良的正畸力学方法，包括直立弹簧和临时锚固装置（TADs）来治疗异位萌出。本病例还强调了对异位萌出尖牙进行早期诊断和及时干预以预防并发症并实现最佳美观和功能效果的重要性。
