Abstract

Avulsion of permanent dentition represents a serious
if relatively uncommon type of traumatic injury. The most frequent complication
after replantation of teeth is ankylosis, from initial root resorption through
eventual replacement of lost root substance with bone. Decoronation may be
considered an alternative treatment strategy for ankylosed incisors in young
patients. In the two cases reported on here, ankylosed teeth in adolescent
patients were decoronated and prosthetically restored after late and less-than-ideal
replantation procedures. The results obtained in these two cases are
indications that decoronation
may be a good treatment option for teeth affected by replacement and external
resorption in young people who have not yet completed their growth and
development.
