    Author: Koca H, Topaloglu-Ak A, Sütekin E, Koca O, Acar S.
    Journal: Dent Traumatol; 2010 Aug; 26(4):370-3. PubMed ID: 20662889.
    Abstract:
    This article reports a clinical case of a 8-year-old boy, who underwent an avulsion of the upper left central incisor. The avulsed tooth was kept in the oral cavity in direct contact with saliva for 5 h from the moment of trauma until its replantation. Treatment guidelines for avulsed mature permanent teeth were followed. The clinical and radiographic findings after 2 years revealed absence of root resorption, ankylosis or mobility of the replanted tooth.
