Successful Replantation of an Anterior Tooth in an 11-Year-Old Child: A Case Report.

Avulsion occurs when the tooth is completely knocked out of its alveolar socket. The maxillary central incisors are more vulnerable to avulsion due to their prominent position in the dental arch. This case report describes a successful permanent maxillary incisor replantation in an 11-year-old child. The replanted tooth was stabilized in the socket using orthodontic wire, followed by root canal treatment and composite restoration within a two-week interval. Clinical and radiographic follow-up was done at one and six months. Successful management of an avulsed tooth requires educating the patient about different storage mediums and emergency management after an avulsion. This case report concluded that the avulsed tooth result is highly dependent on the patient's understanding of avulsion and how to approach it.
