Reattachment of coronal tooth fragments : Aesthetic management of a complicated anterior maxillary crown fracture.

Reattachment of coronal tooth fragments to restore integrity of the tooth structure.

Abstract

The trauma of anterior teeth is a frequent occurrence in young patients. Reattachment of fractured fragments is one of the various treatment modalities proposed in anterior tooth coronal fractures. The reattachment of fractured fragments grants the advantage of immediate aesthetic rehabilitation, restoration of function, relatively a rapid and less arduous procedure. The manuscript presents a case report depicting the management of a complicated crown root fracture of anterior maxillary teeth first treated endodontically, followed by reattachment of the same fragment with a cast post reinforcement. Reattachment of fractured coronal tooth fragment is a  feasible restorative option, rapidly restoring the function and aesthetics of the tooth by a conservative and inexpensive approach.
