Abstract

Anterior tooth coronal fractures frequently occur as dental injuries. Preserving the original fragment after such fractures enables the fragment to be reattached, ensuring sustained aesthetic quality and restoring function effectively. Moreover, this method contributes to a favourable psychological impact on the patient and offers a quicker, less complex treatment alternative. This case study details the intricate treatment of a complex fracture in the maxillary right central incisor, which was first addressed with endodontic therapy and then followed by the reattachment of the original tooth fragment. The reattachment technique serves as a practical restorative option, promptly reinstating the tooth's functionality and aesthetic appearance. This method stands out due to its conservative nature and its economic efficiency, providing clinicians with a swift and effective treatment pathway.
