Kokich from the University of Washington in Seattle and Dr Robert L. Vanarsdall from the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia have greatly published on surgical exposure techniques of impacted canines. They are two world famous leaders on the matter.<\/p>\n<p>Dr Kokich recommends open and preorthodontic exposure of palatally impacted canines. This facilitates eruption and orthodontic traction.<\/p>\n<p>Dr Vanarsdall recommends open exposure with a repositioned gingival flap (pediculated connective tissue graft) above the impacted canine. This allows a better gingival architecture around the canine once the orthodontic treatment is finished.<\/p>\n<p>Surgical techniques are thus divided into 2 main categories:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Open exposure and eruption (open eruption technique)<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Closed exposure and eruption<\/p>\n<p>Historically, in the Quebec City area, the closed exposure and eruption approach has been more often used. Orthodontists from Quebec City are lucky to be able to rely on an excellent group of specialists in oral and maxillofacial surgery and they have great ability in manipulating soft tissues and they bond the cleat to the tooth and put in place the metal ligature wire.<\/p>\n<h2>Open exposure and eruption<\/h2>\n<h3 style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Palatally impacted canine<\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_2576\" style=\"width: 351px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2576\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2576 \" title=\"Kokich-canine-exposure-technique-orthodontist-Chamberland-Quebec\" src=\"https:\/\/sylvainchamberland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Technique-exposition-canine-a-la-Kokich-Orthodontiste-Chamberland-Quebec.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"341\" height=\"227\"><p id=\"caption-attachment-2576\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kokich surgical technique for impacted canine<\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\">\u2022 The palatal flap must have the right size.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\">\u2022 Meticulous ostectomy of the bone covering the canine crown must be performed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\">\u2022 The soft tissues (follicular envelope surrounding the permanent tooth crown) must be removed down to the cementoenamel junction.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\">\u2022 Reposition the flap in its former place and make an opening in the flap to expose the crown and the bonded cleat.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\">\u2022 Put a periodontal pack (dressing).
