title: The use of light-cured resin and orthodontic archwire to immobilise a transplanted maxillary canine.
abstract: A technique is presented which uses light-activated bonding materials and orthodontic archwire to immobilise a surgically transplanted impacted maxillary canine. The technique is quick and effective. It uses materials commonly available in the dental surgery and does not require technical laboratory support. The treatment result of the presented case is encouraging.
