Abstract: Dental avulsion requires a very fast management. The choice of treatment depends on the extraoral time which partly determines the fate of the avulsed tooth. If replantation is impossible, a prosthetic management is necessary to restore function and esthetics in order to prevent any negative psychological impact. This case reports on a procedure used to restore esthetics to a young adult female patient who had lost a central incisor in a traumatic event without having the tooth replanted in a timely manner. This is a prosthetic alternative that the patient can benefit from while pending for the definitive therapy.
