      Preface to the First Edition

      There can be little question that the treatment of impacted teeth has caught the imagination of many in the dental profession. The challenge has, over the years, been taken up by the general practitioner and by a number of dental specialists, including the paedodontist, the periodontist, the orthodontist and, most of all, the oral and maxillofacial surgeon. Each of these professionals has much ‘input’ to offer in the resolution of the immediate problem and each is able to show some fine results. However, no single individual on this specialist list can completely and successfully treat more than a few of these cases without the assistance of one or more of others of his/her colleagues on that list. Thus, the type of treatment prescribed may depend upon which of these dental specialists sees the patient first and the level of his/her experience with the problem in his/her field. Such treatment may involve surgical exposure and packing, orthodontic space opening, perhaps autotransplantation, or a surgical dento‐alveolar set‐down procedure, or even just an abnormally angulated prosthetic crown reconstruction.

      Experience has come to show that the orthodontic/surgical modality has the potential to achieve the most satisfactory results in the long term. Despite this, many orthodontists have ignored or abrogated their responsibility towards the subject of impacted teeth to others, accounting for the popularity of other modalities of treatment. The subject has become something of a Cinderella of dentistry.

      Within the orthodontic/surgical modality, much room exists for debate as to what should be done first and to what lengths each of the two specialties represented should go in the zealous pursuit of its allotted portion of the procedure. The literature offers scant information and guidance to resolve these issues, leaving the practitioner to fend for him/herself, with a problem that has ramifications in several different specialist realms.

      This book discusses the many aspects of impacted teeth, including their prevalence, aetiology, diagnosis, treatment timing, treatment and prognosis. Since these aspects differ between incisors and canines, and between these and the other teeth, a separate chapter is devoted to each. The material presented is based on the findings of clinical research that has been carried out in Jerusalem by a small group of clinicians over the past 15 years or so, at the Hebrew University – Hadassah School of Dental Medicine, founded by the Alpha Omega Fraternity and from the gleanings of clinical experience in the treatment of many hundreds of my patients, young and old.

      An overall and recommended approach to the treatment of impacted teeth is presented and emphasis is placed on the periodontal prognosis of the results. Among the many other aspects of this book, the intention has been to propose ideas and principles that may be used to resolve even the most difficult impaction, employing orthodontic auxiliaries of many different types and designs. None of these is specific to any particular orthodontic appliance system or treatment ‘philosophy’, notwithstanding the author’s own personal preferences, which will become obvious from many of the illustrations. These auxiliaries may be used with equal facility in virtually any appliance system with which the reader may be fluent. The only limitation in the use of these ideas and principles are those imposed on the reader by his/her own imagination and willingness to adapt.

      The orthodontic manufacturers’ catalogues are replete with the more commonly and routinely used attachments, archwires and auxiliaries, which are offered to the profession with the aim of streamlining the busy practice. These items have not been tailored to the demands of the clinical issues that are raised in this book. These issues, by their very nature, are exceptional,
