Uprighting Mandibular Third Molar Using NiTi Wire

If impacted teeth can be brought into occlusion, they should be brought into occlusion, especially in young patients. When the second molar is missing, saving the third molar becomes all the more important. In this case, the patient presented with a missing mandibular second molar, and an impacted mandibular third molar. A 0.019 × 0.025 NiTi wire was used to upright the impacted molar and bring it into occlusion. This method is economical, effective and works well for bonded and banded teeth.
