Abstract

The prevalence of impacted teeth is a very frequent finding with maxillary canines being the second most common, next to third molars. These teeth pose greater aesthetic deficiencies and are addressed through a variety of treatment modalities. Patients with critically impacted canines, that are not amenable for orthodontic traction are usually opted for extraction. Restoring these teeth with a single piece basal implant aids in immediate loading, and a permanent solution, without using bone grafts. This case series of three patients reports the successful restoration of maxillary canines, after surgically extracting them.
