    This study presents a simple light wire method to unlock ectopically erupting first molars, even with significant primary molar root resorption. This technique successfully guides permanent molars into place without disturbing adjacent primary teeth.

    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Orthodontics
    • Pediatric Dentistry

    Background:

    • Ectopic eruption of permanent molars is a common challenge in mixed dentition.
    • Mesial angulation of impacted first molars can cause primary second molar root resorption.
    • A novel, efficient method using light wires is introduced to address this issue.
