Abstract
This article reports the treatment of lateral incisor agenesis in a young patient. Treatment was performed with a mini-implant and a temporary crown. Radiographic and clinical follow up for one year demonstrated a very satisfactory restoration with regard to function and esthetics as well as the stability of the mini-implant.
