Abstract: The treatment of impacted canines is a great challenge for dental surgeons. Permanent canines play an important role in dentition, functions in the conformation of the human dental arch, both from an aesthetic and functional point of view piriform, formation site, until its position in the arch. The travel time to the eruption site is twice as long as the remaining teeth and its late formation becomes more susceptible to change in the eruption site is twice as long as the remaining teeth and its late formation becomes more susceptible to change in the eruption trajectory, becoming impacted. Therefore, it is important to study all approaches that solve this pathology. Its etiology is related to the lack of space in the dental arch. Its treatment requires a cautious approach to interpretation by an Orthodontist and Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon. Imaging exams are essential and the prognosis depends on the position of the canine in relation to adjacent structures.
