title: Posttraumatic impaction of both maxillary central incisors.
abstract: Dental impactions are one of the problems orthodontists see that will usually require surgery along with orthodontic treatment. In most cases, a single tooth is impacted, and a single surgical procedure is performed. We present a case of posttraumatic bilateral impaction of both maxillary central incisors with complete inversion after combined 2-step surgery and orthodontic treatment.
