Reattachment- Conservative management of complicated crown fractures in anterior teeth

Journal Title: International Journal of Applied Dental Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue 1

Abstract

Traumatic injuries to the anterior teeth are a most common form of dental trauma that mainly affects children and adolescents. One of the options for managing tooth fracture when the tooth fragment is available and there is no or minimal violation of the biological width is the reattachment of the dental fragment. Reattachment of fractured tooth fragments can provide good and long-lasting esthetics. It also restores function, provides a positive psychological response, and is a relatively simple procedure. This article reports on two crown root fractures and one coronal tooth fracture cases that were successfully treated using tooth fragment reattachment technique.
