Cunha RF, Delbem ACB, Vieira AEM, Pugliesi DMC. Treatment of a severe dental lateral luxation associated with extrusion in an 8-month-old baby: a conservative approach. Dent Traumatol 2005; 21: 54–56.© Blackwell Munksgaard, 2005.This case report documents the trauma and follow-up care of lateral luxation associated with extrusion of the lower central incisors in an 8-month-old patient. The teeth were repositioned by digital pressure and stabilized using proximal sutures. Clinical and radiographic follow-up 40 months after the injury showed alterations in both incisors, but both remained functional and free of pathology.
