Partial luxation and displacement of tooth during treatment of malocclusion using light-wire fixed appliances - Therapeutic procedure

摘要

Facial trauma sustained during an accident by a 17-year-old female patient who wore thin-wire fixed appliances caused partial luxation and displacement of tooth 21. Because it was attached to a fixed appliance, the tooth did not lose contact with the socket, which significantly improved the prognosis. This study describes the method, course and result of the treatment carried out over a two-year period after the trauma occurred.
