Intrusion injury, defined as displacement of the tooth into the alveolar bone due to dental trauma; It is considered
one of the most serious luxation injuries of primary and permanent teeth.Intrusion injury damages the pulp,
periodontal ligament, and alveolar bone. The treatment of these teeth is decided by evaluating many factors such as
the degree of intrusion, pulp vitality, age of the patient and root development status of the tooth.Treatment of intrusion
injuries includes surgical or orthodontic repositioning of traumatized teeth.In this case report, the treatment of a 9-
year-old patient who applied to our clinic 24 hours after the trauma, with a maxillary central tooth intruded towards
the base of the nose, with a multidisciplinary approach is discussed.
