Abstract

It is well known dental reimplantation is indicated following traumatic avulsion by the preservation of vitality in the
periodontal ligament with condition asepsis. Reimplantation refers to the insertion and temporary of completely or
partially avulsed teeth that have resulted from traumatic injury. Dental reimplantation of an avulsed tooth depends
on certain clinical conditions like physiological status of periodontal ligament, the stage of root development and
the length of extra oral time. Depending on the patient’s age, retention of the permanent incisor can maintain the
aesthetic appearance, occlusal function and alveolar ridge height. Though the risk of progressive replacement
resorption and subsequent tooth loss is high after a long dry storage. This article presents management of one case
with avulsed permanent incisors that were storage in dry condition for seventeen hours
