Description

It is always not possible to extrude impacted canine by orthodontic traction, then extraction is the only option available followed by implant placement. This is a challenge due to a large bone defect created with complex tooth extraction that often necessitates bone grafting. In such cases immediate dental implant placement appears to be the adequate strategy to replace missing tooth along with bone grafting or GBR (Guided bone regeneration)- simultaneous approach. Here, in this case report 25 year old male patient with chief complaint of missing tooth in anterior region having esthetic concerns reported to our department for artificial replacement of that tooth. Radiographically, impacted canine 13 was found and managed by surgical removal of impacted tooth followed by immediate implant placement along with GBR-simultaneous approach.
