The treatment of an avulsed maxillary central incisor by transplantation of an embedded mandibular premolar

Abstract: Avulsion, following traumatic injuries, is relatively infrequent. The treatment of avulsed teeth is by replantation of the avulsed tooth into its own socket. However, sometimes the avulsed tooth cannot be found at the accident site. We report a case in which the avulsed maxillary central incisor is replaced by an embedded lower premolar. A 2-year follow-up shows complete periodontal healing and a very satisfactory clinical result.
