Abstract

Management of complicated crown fracture is one of the frequently faced clinically challenging situations. Crown fracture of anterior teeth is a common form of dental trauma affecting children and adolescents. One of the methods of managing such a situation is reattachment of the fractured crown segment to the parent tooth. This case report describes the treatment of complicated crown fractures in maxillary right and left central incisors of an eight-year-old girl child who reported to the Pedodontics Department. The fractured segments were reattached and apexification was done, and the patient was reviewed to evaluate the treatment plan's success.
