ABSTRACT
To detect predictive factors for the occurrence of complications associated with unerupted maxillary canines (C). A total of 83 cone beam computed tomograms (CBCT), made from November 1, 2021 to October 31, 2022, have met the inclusion criteria, whereby 110 unerupted C were detected. Independent variables were gender, age, and C position. Outcome variables were detected complications external root resorption (ERR) and dilaceration of adjacent tooth, ERR and dilaceration of C, dentigerous cyst, canine ankylosis, and adjacent teeth malposition. Chi-square test and logistic regression analysis were used to examine the relationship between income variables and detected complications. Vertical position of unerupted C showed as predictor for adjacent tooth dilacerations and malposition. Chance for dilaceration increases 5.5-fold with C position at the middle third of lateral incisor (LI) root, while chance of malposition increases 23.4-fold with its supra-apical position to the LI root, in comparison to the C position occlusal to the LI cemento-enamel junction. Age is a predictive factor for dentigerous cysts, with decreasing the chance of their occurrence 1.5-fold with each additional year of age. Early evaluation of the vertical position and timely treatment of C are decisive steps in preventing complications.
