Angulation (inclination of longitudinal axis):

Mesioangular

1

Horizontal/transverse

2

Impacted vertical

3

4

Depth of impaction (with respect to occlusal plane):

Occlusal plane of impacted tooth at same level as occlusal plane of second molar

1

Occlusal plane of impacted tooth between occlusal plane and cervical line of second molar

2
