Abstract
Abstract: The purpose of this case report is to describe the management of a trauma-induced maxillary dentoalveolar fracture in a 7-year-old girl by a modified approach of splinting. The child presented with swelling of the right maxillary region, difficulty in chewing and closing the mouth. Complete palatal displacement of the fractured fragment involving the permanent central incisors was observed clinically and confirmed by radiolographic examination. The fracture was reduced and stabilized using a custom-fabricated, acrylic splint with modified direct wiring under local anesthesia
