The Tooth Bandaid - Restoring Esthetics

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 3

Abstract

Trauma to the anterior teeth are a common sight these days, affecting children and adolescents. Coronal tooth fractures are frequently encountered. When the tooth fragment is available, reattachment of fractured tooth fragments can be a good treatment alternative which provides good and long-lasting esthetics as the tooth’s original anatomic form, color, wear resistance, morphology and translucency in the restoration is maintained. It also restores function, provides a positive psychological response, and is a relatively simple procedure.. This article reports a coronal tooth fracture case that was successfully treated using tooth fragment reattachment.
