Repairing the Irredeemable Fragment Reattachment of a Complicated Crown-root Fracture with Fiber Post

Abstract

Coronal fracture of the anterior teeth is a commonly occurring dental trauma often seen in young individuals. Such fractures can be conservatively managed with fragment reattachment procedure when the fragment is available and preserved in correct storage media. Due to advancements in adhesive dentistry, fragment reattachment is a simple, esthetic and fast treatment option. This article reports a case of fragment reattachment of a complicated crown root fracture using fibre post as an intraradicular splint.
