[Strategic orthodontic treatment for multiple mesioangular impacted molars: a case report].

Tooth impaction is a prevalent dentofacial developmental anomaly, mostly observed in third molars, whereas second molar impaction occurs with lower frequency. This article presents a case of a male adolescent with mesially impacted second molars resulting in the external root resorption of multiple first molars. The patient received orthodontic and surgical treatments simultaneously, achieving dental alignment and enhanced occlusal function. The treatments mitigated the long-term adverse complications of external root resorption.
