Non-Surgical Management of Central Incisor with Apical Third Root Fracture – A Case Report
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Although dentin is flexible and resilient however, sometimes fractures are seen in human teeth following traumatic injury. The management of crown fractures is easy but root fractures is always difficult. Though different types of healing patterns have been mentioned in the literature, still most of these teeth suffer from either continuous pain or they get extracted. To conserve such fractured teeth different techniques have been explained and many a times surgical approach has also been used but the results have often not been that promising. The present case report describes the successful management of a permanent maxillary right central incisor with a horizontal root fracture at the level of apical third.
