Mandibular movements were restricted, and tenderness on palpation was present with respect to chin region and bilateral lower molar region (Figure 1(a)). Sutures were present in the maxillary alveolar ridge area which was placed after compressing and approximating the tooth socket area in the regional hospital (Figure 1(b)). The healed maxillary and mandibular arches can be appreciated in Figures 1(d) and 2(b). Raigad, Maharashtra, India) impressions were taken after 6 weeks of soft tissue healing to fabricate an acrylic prosthesis (Figures 1(c)-1(f)).

Teeth numbers 31 and 42 were luxated from the tooth socket (Figures 2(b) and 2(c)). The luxated teeth numbers 31 and 42 were repositioned into the tooth socket and were secured with the composite resin-wire splint (Figure 2(a)).

Waukesha, WI, U.S.A) of the patient which was performed in the IGMC (Figures 3(a)-3(c) and 4). Tooth number 32 was extracted because it was disarticulated from the socket, and the socket was disrupted because of the alveolar fracture (Figures 3(a)-3(c)). The maxillary avulsed teeth could not be reimplanted because of the alveolar socket damage which was due to the alveolar bone fracture (Figures 3 and 4).
