title: 3 '2' 1: Orthodontic re-positioning of canines into central incisors.
abstract: Resorption of lateral incisors caused by impacted maxillary canines is frequently reported. However, resorption of the central incisor is less common and management of such a finding can prove to be a challenge for the clinician. This article reviews the literature of impacted canines and incisor resorption. The management of two cases of severe central incisor resorption caused by an impacted maxillary canine is also described.
