When teeth are impacted
and buried in the jaw, they can cause damage to the roots
of healthy erupted teeth. Unerupted teeth create a gap,
which, if left untreated, will cause the adjacent teeth
to occupy the space resulting in malocclusion. If this occurs,
an orthodontic appliance is attached to the impacted tooth
to realign it correctly in the oral cavity. We also treat
patients whose teeth, for other reasons, have not erupted.
(We accept
patients seeking consultation only.)
