Survival of Single piece basal implants in restoring critically impacted canine –A Series of case reports

The prevalence of impacted teeth is a very frequent finding with maxillary canines being the second most common, next to third molars. These teeth pose greater aesthetic deficien-cies and are addressed through a variety of treatment modalities. Patients with critically impacted canines, that are not amenable for orthodontic traction are usually opted for ex-traction. Restoring these teeth with a single piece basal implant aids in immediate loading, and a permanent solution, without using bone grafts. This case series of three patients re-ports the successful restoration of maxillary canines, after surgically extracting them.
