Tooth displacement after extraction is a natural process in which the remaining teeth gradually shift from their original position, leading to malalignment and occlusal imbalance. This anomaly most commonly occurs after the removal of one or several adjacent teeth, resulting in the migration or tilting of neighboring teeth into the edentulous space. Early diagnosis and timely preventive or corrective measures are crucial to maintaining proper occlusion and preventing secondary deformities of the dental arch.
