Surgical Repositioning of Impacted Permanent Central IncisorAn Alternative and Practical approach

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2019, Vol 18, Issue 4

Abstract

Impaction of permanent anterior teeth, due to obstruction from supernumeraries or from other pathologies are not rare in children. The commonest treatment done for this is surgical removal of the obstruction, exposure of the impacted tooth and applying traction to bring it into alignment. When the impaction is very much unfavourable, extraction of impacted teeth and prosthetic replacements are done. Surgical repositioning is an alternative realistic approach in such cases. In the first case, removal of an odontoma and in the second case, removal of a supernumerary tooth and in both the cases, successful surgical repositioning of the impacted permanent central incisor at the same visit, are presented.
