Abstract
|
|
|
Traumatic intrusive luxation, an occurrence common in the primary dentition but one that occurs rarely in the permanent dentition, has a poor prognosis.
There have been many treatment approaches such as allowing the tooth to reerupt spontaneously, surgical repositioning and immediate fixation, surgical luxation. and orthodontic repositioning; but all have their own drawbacks.
Meanwhile. Tul·ley et at (1987) have propsed surgical and orthodontic combination therapy to treat intrusion. Surgical and orthodontic combination therany means to apply the orthodontic traction force immediately after surf·gical luxation. If ankylosis occurs, orthodontic force may be applied after re-luxation repeatedly But in cases of complete intrusive luxation, it would be not feasible to bond an orthodontic button or bracket on the tooth directly.
Thus, in this case, traction of the tooth was attempted after surgically repositioning it close to the probable original socket site to promote better healing.
