Abstract
Multiple treatment modalities are available for patients with ectopically erupting central incisor. Conservative management of this cases is important to prevent the adverse effect on psychology of patient and normal development of dentition. This paper shows a case with a conservative orthodontic approach in 10-year-old male child presented with ectopically erupting left central incisor. The orthodontic treatment plan included two steps – creation of space and forced eruption. A unique technique for orthodontic traction (0.017 × 0.025 SS wire with incisal extension) was employed to move the maxillary incisor into arch, with minimum injury to neighboring soft tissue.
