Tooth Avulsion is a significant traumatic injury in children, replantation and follow up care is the treatment of choice. Maxillary incisors are most affected and sometimes over treated or left untreated. Aim: To understand the role of bacterial contamination for the survival of permanent maxillary incisors in cases of avulsion in children Case Report: This paper presents 3 case reports outlining the treatment stages for the survival of avulsed permanent incisors. Pulp & periodontal damage and its tissue responses are discussed through various clinical factors responsible for good prognosis. Result & Observations: Preserving alveolar bone width, retaining aesthetics and function even for an interim period is a favorable outcome. It helps in the replacement of tooth at a convenient period of late adolescence or young adult stage. Conclusion: Immediate replantation is always recommended for good prognosis of tooth avulsion in children.
