Abstract

Children with trauma visit frequently the department of oral and maxillofacial surgery. The treatment for injured permanent teeth is different from that for injured deciduous teeth. We have experienced a case of a 9-year-old boy with an injured unerupted immature permanent tooth with tooth crown fracture. When the tooth erupted gradually, fractured pieces were removed three times, and indirect pulp capping was performed. Three years after the injury eruption was almost completed and pulp was alive, even though the dental roentgenograph showed obliteration of the crown pulp cavity.
