Abstract :
The fracture of front teeth is one of the routine presentations of
traumatic injuries. The treatment of a fractured tooth involving the
pulp includes root canal therapy and post placement followed by core
build-up or by the extraction of the fractured tooth if it is not
restorable. We report a case of an adult male who had traumatized both
his maxillary central incisors following a blow experienced during
domestic violence. He had lost a fractured fragment of the right central
incisor, while the left incisor had complicated fractures with fragments
retained attached to the soft tissue. Following radiovisiography (RVG),
both incisors were conservatively treated in a single visit by
reattachment and post and core techniques. The treatment reported for
reattachment of the tooth fractures and post and core techniques are
reasonably easy while providing immediate and lasting results in
patients’ regaining of social confidence and functionality.
