Delayed replantation of avulsed incisors in a child with cerebral palsy and epilepsy – a case report

This case report describes the successful dental management of a child with cerebral palsy and epilepsy who sustained both avulsion and extrusion injuries following a fall. The teeth were stored extra orally for several hours before they could be replanted. In spite of this, the teeth remain in situ almost ten years later, the patient has complained of no symptoms to date, the aesthetic result is pleasing and the function is good. Key words: Avulsion, luxation, dental trauma, learning disability, epilepsy, cerebral palsy
