– A 2‐year 6‐month male presented after an intrusive injury sustained at 15 months of age. Intra‐oral radiographs showed coronal dilaceration of the germ of the permanent central incisor and the presence of a calcified tissue mass in the area of the trauma which was identified after surgical removal as the permanent upper left lateral incisor. Immediate treatment and long‐term options are discussed.
