Brief Summary:
Many patients suffer from tooth substance loss as a result of fracture or decay of teeth situated in the esthetic zone. This might commonly occur with car accidents, sport injuries, falls or even fistfights.
For those patients, most of the crown is lost and only the root remains, so there is no enough ferrule in order to restore the tooth with a crown.
The most common treatment for those patients is immediate single-tooth implant. However, some problems may arise such as: high treatment expenses, the need for bone augmentation, the refill of the papilla to its normal position may be questionable in some implant cases, young growing patients, apprehensive patients, dental facilities and rural areas lacking cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) machines.
Accordingly, orthodontic extrusion may be an alternative attempt to preserve the tooth by traction of the remaining root to create a sufficient ferrule effect to restore the tooth.
