Abstract

The prevalence of dental avulsion represents 0.5-16% of all traumatic injuries. The present study describes the treat­ment of an 8 year-old girl who suffered an avulsion of an immature permanent maxillary incisor. Replantation was performed in the dental office after 40 minutes dry time and l hour water storage. During the first week of monitoring, externa! root resorption was detected which was treated with calcium hydroxide. At 6 months apical closure was carried out with MTA and root canal therapy was finally performed. The case is described with 4-year follow up of the tooth which met the functional and aesthetic requirements in the individual. Orthodontic treatment was started 2 years after the traumatic injury and there was no sign of any aggravation of the injury. This study illustrates and emphasizes the importance of imme­ diate treatrnent and of following an evidence-based protocol and clinical guidelines that are key for treating avulsed teeth
