CASE REPORT
Orthodontic Correction of Impacted and Transposed Upper Canines
Volume 50 : Number 2 : Page 0 : Feb 2016
The canines have the highest reported incidence of dental transposition - most commonly with the first premolar, followed by the lateral incisor. Several authors have described cases in which canine transpositions were resolved or the teeth were aligned in their transposed positions. To our knowledge, however, no one has reported treating a patient in whom bilaterally impacted upper canines were transposed with the lateral incisors and were also associated with severe root resorption of adjacent teeth. Canine transposition is one of the most common causes of tooth resorption. Typically, an upper lateral-incisor root is affected by ectopic eruption of the adjacent canine, although central incisors can also be involved. The apical and middle thirds of the incisor roots are most likely to be resorbed.

Influence of Student-Loan Debt on Orthodontic Residents and Recent Graduates
Volume 50 : Number 1 : Page 23 : Jan 2016

Similarly, how do orthodontic students grapple with their debt loads as tuition continues to escalate faster than anticipated income? This month's column addresses the issues of student loans and mounting debts, as well as their impact on the lifestyle and expectations of current residents and recent graduates.
