Abstract

The report is about a case of total intrusion of a deciduous central incisor involving a male patient of 14

months of age. Repositioning of the intruded tooth was performed 20 minutes after the trauma, followed

by placement with sutures. Clinical and radiographic monitoring performed after 1, 2, 4, 9, and 13 months

showed normal characteristics. We emphasize the development of preventive programs promoting

parental awareness of the importance of looking for prompt care, resulting in a better prognosis.
