The causes of dental trauma are complex in nature and are influenced by various factors, including human biology, behavior and environment. One of dental trauma producing great consternation in the affected patient and their family is avulsed tooth or disarticulation is the total displacement of tooth out of socket. There are cases where space is closed mesiodistally and orthodontic treatment is necessary before any rehabilitation treatment with implants. We report the cases of two female patients treated at the clinic Implantology Dental Clinic Ana Betancourt Playa municipality. They were very affected psychologically by presenting clinical absence of teeth. In case # 1 had avulsed in a car accident. The missing teeth were 22, 24, 25.14 and 15 with no space in area 22 and carry a higher acrylic partial denture. The case # 2 was absent on 21 by trauma during physical education, so from age 9 was a carrier of an upper acrylic partial denture. After 6 months of orthodontic treatment and recovered space Kos implants were placed in edentulous areas and rehabilitated in the same working day with implant fixed provisional prosthesis, thus achieving an excellent aesthetic, secure fit, proper chewing function and longevity in its duration in the mouth.
