Orthodontic traction of impacted maxillary canines using segmented arch mechanics

ABSTRACT The principles of orthodontic mechanics strongly influence the success of impacted canine traction. The present study discusses the main imaging exams used for diagnosis and localization of impacted canines, the possible associated etiological factors and the most indicated mechanical solutions.

摘要 正畸力学（orthodontic mechanics）的原理对埋伏尖牙牵引（impacted canine traction）的成功实施具有显著影响。本研究探讨了用于埋伏尖牙诊断与定位的主流影像学检查方法、可能的相关致病因素，以及最适宜的力学矫治方案。
