At Dr. Mark M. Petryna, DDS, we provide professional exposed and bonded teeth services throughout Matthews, NC, and the surrounding areas. An exposed and bonded impacted teeth occurs when a tooth does not fully erupt into the mouth and remains either partially or entirely hidden below the surface of the gum tissue, it is referred to as being “impacted.” Another cause of an impacted tooth is the maxillary canine. Canine teeth are critical teeth in the dental arch and play an essential role in your “bite.” Canines are biting solid teeth that have the longest roots of any tooth. By doing this procedure we'll correct tooth placement for future braces.



 For exposed and bond treatment you will be referred by your orthodontic practice.

Why Do Teeth Become Impacted?

Impacted teeth occur when a tooth erupts through the bone can become impacted when there is not enough space in the jaw for proper eruption of the teeth. The teeth that are most commonly affected are the canines. However, incisors, pre-molars, and even molars may be affected as well.
