Background and purpose: This study aimed to localize impacted maxillary canines and root resorption of neighboring incisors using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) in 12-20-year-old patients referred to two private oral and maxillofacial radiology centers in Sari.
Materials and methods: In this descriptive-analytical study, 89 CBCT images were included. Of which, 31 images related to unilateral buccal impaction of the maxillary canine and 58 images related to unilateral palatal impaction of the maxillary canine were analyzed in order to measure the parameters of central and lateral resorption and the amount of resorption of these teeth. Data were analyzed in SPSS software (version 21) at a significance level of 0.05.
Results: Findings revealed no statistically significant relationship between gender and the side of indentation (buccal and palatal). Moreover, the highest position was related to the palatal site in both genders. Based on the chi-square test, there was no significant relationship between gender and latent canine position. Nonetheless, there was a significant relationship between age and latent position, as well as the occurrence of decayed lateral and the position of the impacted canine, which is the opposite of the lateral tooth in the central tooth.
Conclusion: This investigation revealed that the incidence of lateral tooth resorption was associated with the latent canine position, while the incidence of central tooth resorption did not demonstrate a significant correlation
