Abstract :
This report presents a case of severe intrusive luxation of multiple anterior teeth in an 11-yearold
girl. The teeth were repositioned successfully by endodontic and orthodontic management.
The case was monitored for 7 years. Depending on the severity of the injury, different clinical
approaches for treatment of intrusive luxation may be used. Despite the variety of treatment
modalities, rehabilitation of intruded teeth is always a challenge and a multidisciplinary approach is
important to achieve a successful result. In this case, intruded teeth were endodontically treated
with multiple calcium hydroxide dressings and repositioned orthodontically. The follow-up of such
cases is very important as the repair process after intrusion is complex. After 7 years, no clinical
or radiographic pathology was detected.
