Primary tooth impaction is rare, particularly in the front of the mouth. This case study details the successful extraction of impacted primary mandibular central incisors, allowing permanent teeth to erupt correctly.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Dentistry
  • Dental Impaction
  • Oral Surgery

Background:

  • Primary tooth impaction, the failure of a tooth to erupt, is uncommon, especially in the anterior maxillary region.
  • This article focuses on a rare case of impacted primary mandibular central incisors in a young child.

Observation:

  • A 2-year-old male presented with impacted primary mandibular central incisors.
  • No systemic diseases or facial trauma were identified during clinical examination.
  • Clinical and radiographic assessments were performed to evaluate the impaction.

Findings:

  • The impacted primary mandibular central incisors were surgically extracted after a 6-month observation period.
  • Following extraction, the permanent central incisors erupted into their correct positions within eight months.

Implications:

  • Early diagnosis and intervention for primary tooth impaction can lead to favorable outcomes.
  • Extraction of impacted primary teeth may facilitate the proper eruption of permanent successors.
  • This case highlights the importance of monitoring impacted primary teeth for potential complications.
