TI  - Misdiagnosis of Traumatic Intrusion of Maxillary Permanent Incisor: Two Case Reports
AB  - Complete intrusion of a permanent tooth is a very rare entity and may be undetected for manyyears. We report two cases of severely intruded maxillary permanent incisors which were initiallymisdiagnosed as avulsion. In both cases, orthodontic or surgical repositioning was not possible dueto the loss of the alveolar space of the intruded teeth by the movement of adjacent teeth in time.Therefore, patients were referred for orthodontic treatment following the extraction. The aim of thisreport was to highlight the importance of early detection of intruded teeth, which would reduce theneed for further complicated, high-cost and time-consuming treatments.
