This case report describes and analyses a tooth fragment reattachment technique used to resolve crown fractures of the anterior teeth. This treatment allows a conservative approach to traumatic coronal lesions offering a better possibility of maintaining aesthetics and function. The adhesive reattachment is a simple system to achieve good aesthetic and functional results. When tooth and fragment margins are intact, the reattachment technique without any tooth preparation is a simple and predictable procedure.

Abstract


This case report describes and analyses a tooth fragment reattachment technique used to resolve crown fractures of the anterior teeth. This treatment allows a conservative approach to traumatic coronal lesions offering a better possibility of maintaining aesthetics and function. The adhesive reattachment is a simple system to achieve good aesthetic and functional results. When tooth and fragment margins are intact, the reattachment technique without any tooth preparation is a simple and predictable procedure.
