Esthetic Reconstruction of Severe Vertical Soft Tissue Deficiency in the Lateral Incisor Region
ABSTRACT This case report describes management of a severely resorbed ectopic maxillary lateral incisor using atraumatic extraction, socket preservation with coral graft, and vertical soft tissue augmentation via a rotational pedicle connective tissue graft. A resin‐bonded bridge restored the site, achieving stable soft tissues and satisfactory long‐term esthetic and functional outcomes.
