Dental trauma is one of the relatively common emergencies in clinical dental practice, with a high incidence rate, and the maxillary central incisors are the most frequently affected. This article reports a case of a 17-year-old female patient who suffered traumatic complete avulsion of teeth 11 and 21, with tooth 21 lost after avulsion. The prognosis for replantation was poor due to the absence of the buccal alveolar bone wall of tooth 11. Therefore, tooth 11 was treated with extracorporeal root canal therapy and then replanted into the alveolar socket of tooth 21, which had better conditions, followed by elastic splint fixation. After 20 months of follow-up observation, the affected tooth maintained a stable functional position, with no periapical inflammation or ankylosis observed. Subsequently, delayed implant restoration at the site of tooth 11 was performed, ultimately achieving a favorable treatment outcome. This case may provide new insights and references for future clinical practices in tooth replantation.
