title: A novel approach for treatment of the impacted maxillary incisor.
abstract: This case report demonstrates a novel treatment approach to deal with a severely rotated and impacted upper central incisor in an adolescent patient. A precision custom-made gold attachment was fabricated from a prototype using cone beam computerized tomograph (CBCT) scan data and then used to align and de-rotate the impacted central incisor.
