Abstract
Infraocclusion is a local etiologic factor of malocclusion that can have deleterious effects on normal dental development. Therefore, early recognition and diagnosis are the two most important factors in the management of infraocclusion. The purpose of this case report is to describe the management of a patient who was diagnosed at seven years of age with an eruption disturbance, whose severe sequela could have been prevented had the infraocclusion been diagnosed early.
