OVERVIEW
Surgical Uprighting of Lower Second Molars
Volume 50 : Number 1 : Page 33 : Jan 2016

If the impacted molar is submerged deep below the soft tissue, surgical uprighting provides a safe and efficient solution with minimal tooth morbidity and a good long-term prognosis. Although the technique is most commonly applied to mesially angulated lower second molars, it can be used on other impacted teeth that have limited access or have failed to respond to standard bracket-and-chain methods.
