Abstract

Avulsion of teeth is an uncommon condition which is usually associated with trauma. Management of an avulsed tooth often presents a challenge to the clinician and treatment planning differs with each situation. Key factor is the immediate management with appropriate protocol which usually results in good prognosis. A 15-year old female patient with avulsed 23 during therapeutic extraction of 24. The avulsed 23 was reimplanted in to the socket followed by splinting.  Patient was treated with conventional fixed appliance and all the treatment objectives were achieved. This case report highlights the successful management of an avulsed maxillary canine during therapeutic extraction of maxillary first premolar with 3 years follow up after debonding.
