Uncomplicated crown fracture: A biological management option

C M Sapna, Renjith Kumar, Rakesh R Rajan, Sapna C.M., R Priya

Abstract

Dental trauma often results in a fractured anterior tooth crown. The conventional management of these cases involves a direct composite resin restoration, which is riddled with disadvantages. More recently, reattachment of the fractured segment has been suggested as a treatment modality. The present article reports a case of uncomplicated crown fracture of an incisor tooth managed by reattachment, with a 12month follow-up.
