Traumatic Dental Injury (TDI) mostly occurs as a result of any sports injury or an accident. The prognosis of teeth following injury is determined by the kind of TDI, emergency treatment, and the amount of time between emergency treatment and definitive care. Patients with missing anterior teeth lack an impressive appearance aesthetically as well as psychologically. Speech issues and some loss of function can lead to a decline in oral health, which can affect one’s quality of life. This case addresses the patient aesthetic concern in anterior region of maxilla of 15-year-old male due to trauma which resulted in avulsion of both centrals and lateral incisor. Patient’s own completely displaced teeth placed in biological tooth functional space maintainer was planned. The use of natural tooth as functional space maintainer method is less expensive, easy to fabricate, easy to modify according to age and produces better aesthetics. It also maintains space loss in growing children.
