Summary
Intrusive luxation, a severe dental injury, was successfully treated in an 18-year-old male. This case highlights the diagnostic value of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and combined endodontic, orthodontic, and prosthodontic management.
Area of Science:
- Dentistry
- Oral Surgery
- Endodontics
Background:
- Intrusive luxation is a severe traumatic dental injury.
- It causes significant damage to the pulp and supporting structures.
- This injury displaces teeth deeper into the alveolus.
Observation:
- A unique case of intrusive luxation of a mature left maxillary central incisor is presented.
- The patient was an 18-year-old male.
- Diagnosis was confirmed using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT).
Findings:
- The intruded tooth was successfully repositioned.
- Treatment involved a combination of endodontic and orthodontic management.
- Prosthodontic rehabilitation followed repositioning.
Implications:
- This case demonstrates effective management of intrusive luxation.
- Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) plays a crucial role in diagnosis.
- Multidisciplinary dental treatment is key for successful outcomes.
