Abstract :
Dental trauma is more common in young patients and its sequelae may have great impact on the esthetics, functions, and phonetics.
This paper reports a case of trauma in both central incisors in a young 17-year-old patient who was treated using adhesive tooth
fragment reattachment on tooth 2.1 and a palatal indirect composite veneer on tooth 1.1. Regarding the available literature and
fracture extension, the treatment approach proposed for this case provided good functional and esthetic outcomes. Clinical and
radiographic results after 1 year were successful.This case demonstrates the importance of establishing a multidisciplinary approach
for successful dental trauma management.
