Treatment of Gingival Recession of Mandibular Primary Incisors Caused by Dental Trauma

Abstract

This case presentation documented the trauma and follow-up care of luxation associated with extrusion of the lower central and lateral incisors in three-years-old patient. The teeth were repositioned by finger pressure and fixed by self-cured adhesive resin (Super-bond, Japan). Then, occlusion adjustment was carried out for smooth anterior guidance. Seven years clinical and radiographic follow-up after the injury showed sound eruption of permanent incisors and normal gingival tissue attachment adjacent to the teeth. No sign of dental trauma was observed in permanent dentition.
