Unerupted maxillary canines can present a challenge for the general dental practitioner. Recognising when maxillary canines are impacted and deciding on the right course of action at the right time are crucial to obtaining the best possible outcome for patients. This recorded webinar and case study modules are designed for general dental practitioners who wish to develop their skills in diagnosis and management of impacted maxillary canines.
