Fracture of the anterior teeth by trauma is the most frequent type of injury affecting the permanent dentition, especially the maxillary central incisors. When the fragment is not available or its use is not recommended, donated extracted teeth (homogenous bonding) can be used. The aim of this paper is to report the successful 18-year follow up of a maxillary central incisor fracture in which homogenous bonding was performed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
