A Multidisciplinary Approach to Treat A Subgingivally Fractured Incisor -A Case Report
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 5
Abstract
Movement of a tooth by extrusion involves applying traction forces in all regions of the periodontal ligament to stimulate marginal apposition of crestal bone. Because the gingival tissue is attached to the root by connective tissue, the gingiva follows the vertical movement of the root during the extrusion process. Similarly, the alveolus is attached to the root by the periodontal ligament and is in turn pulled along by the movement of the root.Forced eruption may serve as an alternative treatment modality since its introduction in 1973. A 25 year old boy came with obliquely fractured maxillary left central incisor at the cervical level. The diagnosis of complicated crown fracture with apical periodontitis in relation to 21 was made. Root canal treatment of the tooth was done followed by J hook cementation for the forced eruption of the tooth by orthodontic wires. After 21 days, restoration of tooth with post and core followed by crown was done.
