Abstract

A complicated crown-root fracture is defined as a fracture involving enamel; dentin and root cementum extends longitudinally to the sub-gingival area and sometimes compromises the biologic width. This case report describes an oblique complicated crown-root fracture with an irreversible pulpitis of the maxillary right central and lateral incisors in a young patient who has 13 years old. The treatment strategy included endodontic therapy followed by reattachment of fractured fragment reinforcing with a prefabricated post. After 4 years of following-up, the reattached fragment presents satisfying esthetics, excellent function and good state of periodontal health.
