| Sumario: | To present an uncommon disturbance of root development with ingrowth of bone and periodontal tissue into the pulp space in a delayed replanted immature permanent incisor at five years of follow-up. Severe arrest of root formation with uncommon healing of an immature permanent maxillary incisor after delayed replantation is reported. Continued development of a tooth root separate from the body of the tooth was not observed. A 6-year-old girl sustained an avulsion injury to her upper left central permanent incisor. The tooth was replanted and splinted 2 hours after the accident. Patient has been monitored clinically and with radiography for 5 years. The periodontal tissues presented good healing without replacement resorption. However, severe arrest of root formation with development of hard-like tissue and internal periodontal ligament inside the pulp canal have been observed. Despite being a delayed tooth replantation, the patient has been asymptomatic, and has maintained alveolar bone volume. Clinicians must be vigilant and monitor traumatized immature teeth closely. |
