Abstrakt: Complete failure of eruption leads to impaction. Impacted teeth are more common in maxilla as compare to mandible. The impaction of permanent dentition is not uncommon but out of them, few permanent teeth are rarely impacted such as maxillary first molars. Etiology behind this can be multifactorial. Here, we report two rare cases of impacted maxillary first molars which require very technique sensitive surgical removal so as to minimize risks of injury to adjacent teeth and other adjacent structures. Follow-up was made first day, third day, seventh day, and 1 month with no complication. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
