Treatment of crown root fracture is complex and requires an accurate diagnostic and treatment plan. The purpose of this article is to report a case of a maxillary central incisor with a crown-root fracture with pulp exposure treated and rehabilitated with the preservation of pulp vitality using a micro-pulpotomy and pre-mixed bioactive endodontic cements followed by zirconia restauration, a bioinert ceramic material, milled using CAD/CAM technology. The preservation of pulp vitality using premixed bioceramic materials, ensures the continuation of dentinogenesis with its benefits, higher resistance of radicular walls against fracture, smaller diameter of apical foramen as well as creating conditions over time for a post retained crown with better aesthetic results.

ABSTRACT Crown fractures of the anterior teeth are a common form of dental trauma mainly affecting children and adolescents. One of the options for managing crown fractures is the reattachment of the fractured fragment when the tooth fragment is available with minimal or no violation of the biological width. Reattachment of fractured fragments can provide good esthetics, as it maintains the tooth's original anatomic form, color, and surface texture. It also restores function and is a relatively simple procedure. This case report deals with the esthetic management of a crown-root fracture that was successfully treated with endodontic treatment followed by reattachment of fractured fragment with fiber post.

Complicated crown-root fractures account for a small percentage of traumatic dental injuries seen in children; however, management of these injuries can be very challenging to clinicians. Factors such as complexity of the injury, patient’s age and dentition stage, patient’s cooperation, and parental demands may have some bearing on the type of treatment undertaken and its outcomes. In some children, these injuries may have significant impact on their quality of life. The purpose of this article is to describe two cases of complicated crown-root fracture which were successfully managed through orthodontic extrusion using a sectional fixed orthodontic technique. The basis for the treatment technique and its favourable outcomes were highlighted with its advantages and drawbacks.

Root fractures can involve the dentin, cementum, and pulp and commonly can occur as oblique fractures with varying orientations. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the maintenance of pulp health in a tooth with a fractured root without any endodontic treatment and to discuss the advantage of cone-bean computed tomography (CBCT) compared with traditional radiographs in the diagnosis of oblique root fractures. Intra-oral radiography of tooth 11 revealed a horizontal root fracture at the level of the apical third, while the sagittal CBCT slice reveals a complete fracture line running obliquely from the apical third on the buccal aspect through the cervical third on the palatal aspect.  Four years follow-up, the tooth has kept its pulp vitality, no tooth discoloration or discrepancy in arch position, without endodontic treatment. This result illustrates spontaneous healing of root fracture including preservation of pulp health. In addition, it confirms the importance of exams in 3 dimensions to correctly locate the fracture and assist in the treatment decision.

ABSTRACT Traumatic injury to oral cavity with accompanying tooth fracture can be a tragic experience for the patient and is a problem that requires experience, judgment and skill of the dentist. The dental health and appearance marred by an unsightly injury must be restored to normal as soon as possible. Though, root fractures comprise 0.5 to 7% of injuries affecting the permanent dentition, improper and delayed treatment can lead to loss of tooth. This report records a clinical case of intraalveolar horizontal mid root fracture in maxillary right central incisor with subluxation of coronal segment, which was managed endodontically using mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), as an apical barrier at the fracture site. Maxillary right lateral and left central incisors affected by oblique crown-root fracture which were restored by custom-cast post and crown. After one year follow-up, the teeth were asymptomatic and showed signs of healing apical to the MTA barrier.

Crown-root fractures are one of the most challenging trauma cases to treat. Reattachment of tooth fragment to a fractured tooth being a simple procedure conserves the tooth structure, maintains the natural esthetics value and is thus considered as a favorable treatment option. The reattachment procedure using composite resin should be considered if the subgingival fracture can be exposed to provide isolation after a careful evaluation of the biologic width involvement. This case report presents a complicated crown-root fracture of permanent maxillay left central incisor, involving the biologic width in an 11-year-old boy. The traumatized tooth was treated endodontically and reinforced by using glass fiber-post. Access to the subgingival margins was gained by electro surgery. The fractured fragment was reattached using bonding system and composite resin.

Dental traumatic injuries most commonly occur in the primary and mixed dentition, but vertical complicated crown-root fractures are rarely seen in children. Clinical and radiographic examination of these injuries helps in accurate diagnosis and management. According to the International Association of Dental Traumatology guidelines, treatment usually involves extraction followed by placement of a space maintainer. Cases of complicated crown and root fracture in primary posterior teeth are often unnoticed by the clinician, at the time of injury. Two such patients are presented, who reported symptoms a few weeks after their accident. They were managed conservatively by initial stabilization with stainless steel crowns, followed by root canal therapy. This report highlights the need for referral to specialists and emphasizes the importance of conservative management of primary teeth to maintain functional demands.
