Abstract

Maxillary canines are known as the corner stones of mouth. They are considered to be important for esthetics and for functional occlusion. Any disturbance in the eruption process leading to an aberrant position will hamper esthetics as well as function. Such conditions can be treated orthodontically in various ways including the alignment of canine into proper arch. This report describes two cases of leveling and alignment of highly placed canine into proper occlusion using multi-loop.
