Retained baby teeth: Dangerous? No. Less than ideal dental health? Probably. You should consult with a well respected dentist in your area for an evaluation and discussion of possible alternative treatment plans.

Wrong adjective: Can be troublesome, but not dangerous. Why don't you ask an orthodontist, the specialist that deals with impacted canines all the time, for an answer specific to your individual needs.
