Özet
Localized infection in the primary teeth was reported as an etiological factor in the formation of a hypoplastic defect in the underlying permanent teeth. The purpose of this report is to present the case of a 10-year-old girl with an unusual local hypoplasia in the mandibular left permanent canine and emphasize the importance of multidisciplinary management, including combined apexification and orthodontic extrusion. The 12-month recall examination revealed no pathology associated with the rehabilitation, and the patient's esthetic and functional expectations were satisfied.
