This case report presents two cases of delayed replantation of avulsedmaxillary central incisors after an extended dry extra-alveolar period. Eight-year-old boy and 10-year-old boy presentedwith avulsedmaxillary central incisors due to trauma occurring 27 and 7 hours earlier, respectively. Treatment guidelines for avulsedmature/immature permanent teethwith prolonged extra-oral timewere carried out for the teeth and the extra-oral endodontic treatment was completed. After having been repositioned, the teeth were stabilized for 4 weeks and prophylactic antibiotic was prescribed. Clinical and radiographic controls were done after 18 months for Case I and 12 months for Case II. During the follow-up periods the teeth reported in these cases have remained in a stable, functional position but revealed clinical initial replacement resorption and ankylosis.
