Road traffic accidents are common among young adolescents, which leads to dentoalveolar injuries which are the most commonly encountered injuries. Several rehabilitation techniques are available in the literature which includes preparation of a fracture site with composite, splinting with fiber reinforced composites, removable partial dentures, resin bonded bridges, and the most recent-implants. In recent times, immediate implant placement and loading are found to be the permanent rehabilitation solution for an avulsed tooth as compared to reimplantation. Hence, we present a case report of a 16-year-old female patient who met with a road traffic accident resulting in missing right and left central incisors and fractured left lateral incisor, who was managed by rehabilitation with implants with immediate loading as a permanent solution.
