Orthodontic and Surgical Treatment in an Inverted Maxillary Impacted Central Incisor: A Case Report

Abstract

A 13-year-old boy was referred to the oral surgery department with the chief complaint of non-eruption of the permanent maxillary left incisor. The anterior traumatic history of the patient was unremarkable. A clinical examination revealed the presence of an inverted impacted incisor in the vestibular. A radiographic examination, CT Scanner evaluated accurately the position, morphology and adjacent structures. The findings showed the necessity for an interdisciplinary approach between the orthodontist and oral surgeons to address the patient's issue.
