Ectopic Eruption of Mandibular Permanent First Molar Correction: A Case Report
Ectopic eruption of permanent first molars occurs due to the molar’s abnormal mesioangular eruption path, resulting in an impaction at distal prominence of the primary second molar’s crown. The objective of this article was to report a six-year-old girl who had ectopic eruption of left mandibular permanent first molar and corrected by using Halterman appliance designed to move left mandibular permanent first molar distally with elastic chain. The molar had been successfully treated and uprighted.
