An esthetic approach to retain fracture tooth fragment

Abstract

Traumatic injuries of the teeth involve varying degrees of the damage to the teeth or the supporting soft tissues itself. Traumatic injuries are more common in the maxillary anterior teeth. Clinical significance in doing reattachment is with immediate restoration of function, esthetics, phonetics, and positive physiological response. This article describes the immediate reattachment of fracture tooth fragment for restoration of function and esthetics.
