Abstract
Impaction is defined by Kuftinec and Shapira as a condition with embedded teeth in socket so that its eruption is prevented and will be locked in that position by either bone or adjacent teeth. Unlike isolated impactions multiple impactions may be due to the underlying syndromes or disorders. In cases where confusion exists in differential diagnosis additional examinations might become necessary to exclude systemic and metabolic disorders.
