Yes

433
Q

437
Q

What is the treatment if see an overlapping canine over lateral on the pan?

A

Extract primary canines

438
Q

What is the key to treatment/prevention of impacted maxillary canines?

A

Early diagnosis via Panoramic radiograph while repeating Dr Carter’s mantra “No Rads to the Gnads.”

439

What should you wait on before doing a Frenectomy?

A

Delay until permanent incisors and canines have erupted

440
Q

When is a Frenectomy done in conjunction with ortho: before or after?

A

After ortho to see if still necessary once the ortho has closed the diastema

441
Q

Abnormal maxillary frenum can cause what?

A

Diastema

Pull on lingual attached gingival (can lead to Perio)
Speech difficulties
Feeding difficulties
Pain

444
Q

What is a general rule for early or late exfoliation of primary teeth and the eruption of their successors?

A

The earlier you take out the primary tooth, the later the permanent tooth will come in and vice versa
