{Abstract}: <B>UNASSIGNED: </B>Children with missing anterior teeth have physiological and psychological problems. Out of the many treatment options available, dental implants have advantages in replacing teeth. But, conventional implants in growing individuals are contraindicated due to their osseointegration property. Newer literature suggests transitional implants in growing individuals, which may allow easy removal of requirements in the future.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>A 12-year-old female patient visited the department with esthetic concerns. The orthodontic treatment was carried out to correct the malocclusion. An MS transitional implant was used to rehabilitate the missing maxillary left lateral incisor. After 24 months of follow-up, the transitional implant provided optimal esthetic and patient compliance.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>Transitional implant is a possible mode of rehabilitation in children and adolescents with missing teeth. Systematic planning of treatment can lead to desired esthetic and functional results.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>Rathi NV, Baliga S, Thosar NR, et al.
