Rehabilitative treatment after unsuccessful teeth replantation: a case report.
A nine-year-old boy suffered a severe facial trauma in a bicycle crash, which resulted in the avulsion and subluxation of upper central incisors. Teeth were repositioned and stabilized, attempting to achieve a successful replantation. Root resorption occurred, teeth were extracted, followed by orthodontic treatment, and esthetic procedures, modifying laterals and canines. This article reports an attempt and failure of replantation, providing alternatives for achieving patient's satisfaction, applying a variety of techniques and areas of dental profession.
