Abstract Lateral luxation is defined as a traumatic displacement of a tooth in any direction other than axially. A laterally luxated tooth is often immobile because of its bony lock. It produces a high metallic sound during percussion. Pulp sensibility testing is likely to be negative during the initial follow‐up. However, the tooth should be monitored until a definitive pulp diagnosis is made. Treatment includes local anesthesia, suturing soft tissue injuries, manual repositioning of the luxated tooth, and stabilization with a flexible splint for 4 weeks. Given the risk of pulp necrosis following lateral luxation, particularly in teeth with radiographically closed apices and severe displacement, an immediate (prophylactic) root canal treatment is recommended. The objective of this work was to report and discuss the management of a case of lateral luxation involving a permanent tooth treated by reduction, followed by contention with 0.4 steel wire and composite resin, and endodontic treatment, and which was complicated by root resorption 3 months later. We also highlighted the possible complications following lateral luxation, especially root resorption. |
