“…The term "transmigration" refers to the intraosseous migration of unerupted teeth across the midline. 1,2 Various authors defined transmigration in different ways. Javid 3 and Mupparapu 4 defined transmigration when more than 50% of total length of canine has crossed the midline, while Tarsitano et al 18 defined transmigration when the canine crosses the midline in its pre-eruptive phase.…”

Introduction: Canine transmigration is a rare orthodontic condition and it is relevant to perform the proper diagnose at an early age. Objective: The aim of the current study was to find out the frequency of transmigrated mandibular canines (TRC) in orthodontic patients obtained from South Asian population of Pakistan origin. Methods: Panoramic radiographs of 2,550 untreated orthodontic patients (1,248 males; 1,302 females) were included, to investigate the presence, site, and type of TRC. Any permanent mandibular canine that was found to be crossing the midline in panoramic radiographs was considered as TRC. Results: The frequency of TRC was found to be 0.98%. TRC were only found unilaterally. No significance regarding gender and side was found. Nineteen TRC displayed a type 1 transmigratory pattern, while type 2 and type 5 transmigratory patterns were encountered in three patients. Conclusion: Frequency of transmigrated mandibular canines in the studied sample was 0.98%.

“…Most of the reported cases either report failure of eruption or transmigration. [ 1 2 3 4 5 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 ] Moreover, the patient also presented with torus palatinus and anterior crossbites, which were not previously reported in the literature, ultimately adding bizarre features to this case.…”

Eruption disorders are numerous varying from delayed to complete failure of eruption. Primary failure of eruption (PFE) is a rare condition that involves arrested eruption of teeth with the absence of local or general contributory factors. Another rare and clinically challenging phenomenon is canine transmigration which is the intra-osseous movement of impacted canines across the midline. This report presents the first case of combined failure of eruption of multiple teeth with bilateral mandibular canine transmigration, transposition of upper canine and the first premolar, torus palatinus, and class III incisor relationship in a 33-year-old asymptomatic and nonsyndromic female patient.

“…Transmigration of bilateral canines is exceptional. In relation to a case of bilaterally transmigrating mandibular canines, it is important to study the canines based on the projected path of eruption, eruption status and migration pattern [13] . The clinical signs in such cases include the overretention of the deciduous canine and permanent canine failing to erupt beyond its physiological period of eruption [3] .…”

“…The clinical signs in such cases include the overretention of the deciduous canine and permanent canine failing to erupt beyond its physiological period of eruption [3] . According to numerous authors, canine tooth germ placed anterior to the mandibular incisors might have migrated towards the contra-lateral side due to the growth of mandible, while other authors suggest that the canine had been directed to an aberrant position as a result of an abnormally strong eruptive forces [12], [13] .…”

Background: A canine is classified as "transmigrated" when it crosses the midline. Transmigration of mandibular canines bilaterally is an extremely rare developmental dental ectopia with obscure etiology. Case Description:A 13 year old female and 10 year old male patient reported to the department with the chief complaint of missing teeth in the upper front teeth region and retained deciduous tooth in the lower front teeth region respectively. Panoramic radiographs revealed horizontally impacted permanent mandibular canines crossing the midline and located below the apices of the incisors. Based on the clinical, radiographic and CBCT findings, a diagnosis of transmigration of mandibular canines was established.Conclusion: Dental anomalies and pathologies such as cystic lesions, odontoma and root resorption of the adjacent teeth have been reported to be associated with transmigrated canines. Early diagnosis by radiographic evaluation and correction either by orthodontic intervention or by surgical transplantation is important to protect oral structures and preserve the canines to ensure facial harmony and improved function.
