Abstract
Tooth intrusion occurs when a tooth is moved more axially. The periodontal gap between the tooth and the bone cannot be seen radiographically. It is seen as one of the most severe types of traumatic injury. Depending on the age, root, dentition type growth, the prognosis, and treatment for trauma severity varies. A 3–6 mm intrusion has a strong prognosis, whereas an intrusion over 6 mm has a rather poor prognosis. The present case study focuses on the surgical repositioning of the left maxillary central incisor that has been intruded due to falling.
