Surgical Repositioning Following a Severe Traumatic Intrusion of Maxillary Permanent Incisors: A Case Report
Intrusion is the most severe luxation injury, resulting in soft and hard tissue damage. Treatment depends on the root development stage and tooth intrusion degree. Lateral luxation describes tooth displacement in any direction other than axial. The prognosis of luxated teeth depends on the emergency treatment and elapsed time. This paper reports an 11-year-old boy who sustained displacement of central and lateral incisors into the nasal cavity, and his left canine had lateral luxation. Surgical repositioning was undertaken for intruded teeth, and a splint was placed. The canine could not be repositioned due to the delay, but its position improved toward the force of the cheek after several sessions. This study contains the data obtained from a one-year follow-up.
