Abstract

A 9-year-old female was referred by her general dentist for an evaluation of an impacted maxillary left central incisor. Her maxillary left primary incisors showed crossbites and her right central incisor showed an edgeto-edge bite which caused gingival recession on the mandibular right central incisor. After treatment, the impacted maxillary central incisor erupted successfully. An optimal overbite and overjet were also achieved, and her gingival recession was improved.
