| Summary: | The management of the upper impacted canines includes a range of options, including orthodontic options in their various forms, up to extraction and replacing the tooth with a dental implant. Auto tooth graft (ATG) has achieved good clinical efficacy and was recently used as a grafting material for its bone induction and conduction properties. The use of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is highly effective in regenerative dentistry, and its use with bone grafts has improved tissue healing. This case report shows for the first time managing impacted canine with extraction and converting it into ATG and mixing it with injectable PRF to obtain sticky bone ATG and insertion of an immediate implant in a female patient who complains about a missing upper left canine. The results show the good bone formation and satisfactory clinical aspects. |
