Abstract

Abstract : When the patient was primary school student, she fell down and hit her face hard.

 Her mesial angle of right maxillary anterior teeth was broken and her lips were injured. Based on pulp vital tests, results, and immature permanent teeth, I decided long-term observation was necessary.

 2 years and 3 months later, the apex of the teeth was completed, but there was inflammation at the periapical region, so I started endodontic treatment.

 16 years after endodontic treatment was done, the teeth had changed color to dark brown, so I bleached the teeth.

 I will report further observations at 18 years.
