A Study of Transmigrated Canine in an Indian Population

Table 3

Characteristics of relationship (position/angulation and distance travelled) between median palatine suture and maxillary transmigrant canine.

Characteristics with median palatine suture	Maxillary transmigrant canines ()
Position and angulation of transmigrated canine
Horizontal (80°–90°)	4 (80%)
Mesioangular (45°)	1 (20%)
Distance travelled in contralateral arch past midline suture by transmigrated canine along its long axis
Tip of crown till less than halfway length of crown of transmigrated canine	3 (60%)
Halfway of crown till cementoenamel junction of transmigrated canine	2 (40%)
Beyond cementoenamel junction irrespective of root of transmigrated canine	—
