Abstract
The acid-etch technique for direct bonding as a means of applying traction to unerupted teeth, has been utilized for some time. This paper presents practical advice for treatment of unerupted teeth employing surgical exposure, direct bonding of orthodontic attachments for the application of traction and subsequent replacement of the soft tissue flap.Keywords
