Objective:
The main objective of this case report is to understand
how we can give immediate restoration to the traumatized tooth
with the original one. Reattachment is such an ultraconservative
technique which provides safe, fast, and esthetically pleasing
results. This paper discusses fragment reattachment technique
and presents a clinical case of complicated crown fracture.
Materials and Methods:
A 20-years-old male patient was
reported to the Department of Kantipur Dental College Teaching
Hospital & Research Center, with the chief complaint of fractured
lower anterior tooth due to fall injury. Clinical and radiographic
examination revealed Elli’s Class III fracture in mandibular right
lateral incisor and canine with lingually aligned lateral incisor
resulting in severe pain and loss of aesthetics and function. The
case was treated with immediate RCT followed by post and core
and reattachement of the same fractured fragment. We used
protaper files and gutta percha from Dentsply for the obturation,
metal post was placed from Dentsply and reattachement was
done with dual cure auto mixing composite resin (ResiCem from
SHOFU).
Result:
We achieved immediate restoration of the traumatized
tooth with natrual fragment of the fractured portion.
Conclusion:
Because of larger incidence of trauma to dental
tissues and to their supporting structures, it is important to have
proper knowledge on clinical techniques and their indications,
along with risk-benefit ratio. The reattachment of the tooth
fragment is possible only when the fragment is available
which can be improved with different adhesive techniques and
restorative materials. The main concern and challenge is to
educate the population to preserve the fractured fragment and
seek immediate dental care.
