Zusammenfassung:– This report presents a case of replantation of a traumatically avulsed central incisor in a 32‐year‐old woman. The tooth was replanted after a 30‐min extra‐alveolar period. Emergency unconventional immobilization was performed, using 2–0 chromic gut, and a restorative composite made Gunning‐type splint. The tooth is still in place 27 years after replantation (1976 to date) without marked resorption.
