| Summary: | Canine transmigration is a rare phenomenon. There are many unconvincing hypotheses for the mechanism of canine transmigration. The migration of transmigrated canines is very fast before the completion of their root development. A rapid migration of a canine after its complete root development is very rare. The treatment of a transmigrated canine is always tailored to the specific clinical scenario. This case report highlights the literature review on canine transmigration and a case report mentioning the rapid migration of a transmigrated canine after the completion of its root development. An enlarged follicle around the crown of a transmigrated canine can be a clue for its further migration. An impacted transmigrated canine with an enlarged follicle positioned near to any vital structure must be extracted so that further complications can be prevented. |
