“…It also renders subsequent treatment procedures complex. Replacement of the extracted incisors showing root resorption with impacted canines after orthodontic traction is often performed in such cases 3 . Generally, the gingival margins of the canines are at a different level from those of the central incisors.…”

Objective This case report describes the orthodontic and prosthetic rehabilitation of a patient with resorption of the roots of the maxillary central incisors due to the ectopic maxillary canines. Clinical Considerations A 16‐year‐old woman presented with severe resorption of the roots of the maxillary central incisors due to the ectopic maxillary canines. The impacted canines were orthodontically tracted with a lingual arch‐supporting temporary central incisors and vertical elastics, and, undesirable root proximity was later corrected by moving the canines distally 1.5 mm apart. Gingival replacement cords were placed into the gingival sulcus of the canines, and tooth preparation was performed along with rotary gingival curettage of the interdental papilla. Convex form was provided for the mesial and labio‐distal subgingival contour of the restorations. Conclusions The creeping attachment of the interdental papilla was successfully achieved by the orthodontic arrangement of interdental distance and the prosthetic stimulus via the retraction cord, rotary curettage, and convex mesial subgingival contours. In addition, selective retraction of the labio‐distal gingiva by overcontoured restorations moved the gingival zenith position (GZP) distally. Finally, the canine crown morphology and gingival level mimicked the central incisors. Clinical Significance This clinical report introduces a treatment workflow of to recover the esthetic disturbance due to severe root resorption of the maxillary central incisors associated with impacted maxillary canines. The present orthodontic and prosthetic procedure can improve both hard and soft tissue esthetics and could be used in similar cases, such as malformed teeth and tooth autotransplantation or transposition with disturbances in the interdental papilla height or the GZP.

“…The etiology of early loss of anterior teeth can be trauma, anomalies, and dental caries leading to esthetic, phonetic, and functional problems . In the literature, a variety of treatments are described prosthetic replacement autotransplantation and orthodontic space closure . The choice of treatment depends on factors such as the number of lost teeth, the occlusion, space conditions, age, facial morphology, growth pattern, dental morphology, and the need for orthodontic treatment in general.…”

“…When these problems are associated with early anterior tooth loss, treatment of the case becomes even more of a challenge.The etiology of early loss of anterior teeth can be trauma, anomalies, and dental caries (3) leading to esthetic, phonetic, and functional problems (4). In the literature, a variety of treatments are described prosthetic replacement(5, 6) autotransplantation (7) and orthodontic space closure (6,8). The choice of treatment depends on factors such as the number of lost teeth, the occlusion, space conditions, age, facial morphology, growth pattern, dental morphology, and the need for orthodontic treatment in general(5).The purpose of the present article is to describe treatment of a seventeen-year-old girl with a Class II malocclusion, an anterior open bite and loss of the maxillary left central incisor.…”

The aim of this article is to report the clinical case of non-surgical treatment of a Class II malocclusion with anterior open bite, associated with absence of a maxillary central incisor avulsed due to trauma. Treatment proceeded with the use of orthodontic mini-implants as an anchorage device for intrusion of the maxillary molars and for mesial movement of the lateral incisor to replace the central incisor. Treatment resulted in good occlusion, with anterior and lateral guides, enhancement of the facial profile, and good dental esthetic appearance without the need for prosthetic treatment. The treatment outcome was satisfactory but needs long-term or permanent retention.
