Endodontic Treatment of Surgical Repositioned Traumatically-Intruded Maxillary Incisors Permanent Teeth

This report presents the case of a 10-year-old girl who was referred to the siloam hospital lippo village (slvh) dental clinic 6 days after sustaining a severe traumatism that led to intrusion of the maxillary central and lateral incisors. the intruded teeth were repositioned by using surgical reposition and splinted. endodontic treatment was performed 3 weeks after repositioning. the root canals were rinsed with 2.5% naocl, then calcium hydroxide dressing was placed. splint was removed after 3 months. definitive root canal fillings were accomplished 6 months later. the result implied that endodontic treatment until 9 months showed no periodontal complication, but 2 months later the teeth were slightly discolored. further follow up should be made yearly for at least 5 years, because luxation injuries frequently do not show problems initially. in this case, surgical repositioning combined with endodontic treatment is a viable alternative treatment for severe traumatic intrusion in mature permanent teeth.
