Reattachment of fractured maxillary canine reinforced with fi ber post used as an abutment: A case report

Abstract

Traumatic injuries are often encountered most commonly in maxillary anterior teeth and often require immediate attention. One of the treatment options is reattachment of the intact tooth fragment. In the present case report, the patient had complex fracture in maxillary central and canine. We have used one of the least invasive methods for reattachment of the tooth fragment which is ultraconservative and restores the original contour and esthetics of the tooth. Furthermore, if the reattachment procedure had not been followed, it would have led to the loss of the maxillary canine and compromised the crown root ration severely for the permanent prosthesis.
