Reattachment of complex fractures; a reality by advances in self-etch bonding systems
2019
An 18-year-old female patient reported to the Department of Conservative and
Endodonticswith the chief complaint of
fractured toothwith respect to 21 and increased pain and mobility tooth with respect to 22. Intraoral periapical radiograph of 21 revealed
coronalloss of tooth structure involving enamel, dentin, and pulp, suggestive of split tooth with respect to 21. Intraoral examination revealed a fracture of
coronalstructure of 22 and increased mobility in the
coronalaspect, suggestive of horizontal crown–root fracture. For management of 21, after
endodonticphase, placement of fiberpost, and
coronalbuildup, intentional reimplantation was done to expose and reattach the vertically fractured root fragment. For management of 22, after
endodonticphase,
crown lengtheningwas done, and the fractured fragment was reattached by making it a Natural Richmond's Crown. Radiographs revealed a complete sealing of the fractured fragment and proper positioning of the tooth.
