Abstract :

Pathologic tooth migration (PTM) is a periodontal pathology, referring to tooth displacement which may occur in association with gingival inflammation and pocket formation. It occurs most frequently in anterior region which can be extremely disfiguring. The importance of early detection and elimination of the causative factors involving multidisciplinary management can prevent serious periodontal involvements. In the light of current periodontal literature this case attempts to support repositioning of pathologically migrated teeth after periodontal therapy alone
