Abstract

The presence of mesiodens can cause some clinical problems. This paper reports a case of delayed

eruption of permanent central incisors in a nine-year-old male as a consequence of a mesiodens and

three surgical approaches prior to the eruption of incisors, which occurred after the third surgery when

the crown was exposed and submitted to a gentle luxation.
