  • To inform general dental practitioners about surgical and orthodontic considerations.
  • To facilitate informed patient consultations regarding malocclusion treatment.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current literature on managing ectopically positioned teeth.
  • Discussion of surgical techniques relevant to local causes of malocclusion.
