Journal Title: Revista Científica do CRO-RJ / Rio de Janeiro Dental Journal - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
Objective: This case report describes the management and a 3-year follow-up of an unerupted and ectopic positioned anterior tooth. Case Report: The patient, a girl (9 years old) was referred due to the lack of a permanent maxillary left central incisor. When she was 2 years old suffered a complete intrusion of her primary maxillary left central incisor, and the tooth re-erupted after 4 weeks. Radiographic examination revealed the impaction and severe dislocation of the permanent maxillary left central incisor. The impacted tooth was surgically exposed and placed in orthodontic traction for alignment over a period of 12 months. Results: After this period the central incisor presented satisfactory periapical and periodontal health, adequate occlusion and a good esthetic outcome. After three years of follow-up, apically rounded and no extensive damage to tooth or tissues structures were observed Conclusion: The orthodontic management had been successfully performed with excellent functional and esthetic results. Treatment of an impacted incisor is a challenge, which should be carefully planned. A clinical and radiographic follow-up by a multi- rofessional group is of outmost importance.
