Abstract
Traumatic dental injuries (TDIs) of young permanent teeth occur frequently in children and fledgling adults. Complicated crown- root fractures and luxationsare most common dental injuries. Proper diagnosis, treatment planning and followup are important for improving a favorable outcome. Successful pain management of impaired function, esthetics, and phonetics should be the prime objective when handling such cases. Therefore, reattachment of fragment to a fractured tooth remains as the treatment of choice because of its simplicity, natural esthetics, and conservation of tooth structure. This article describes immediate treatment of oblique crown root fracture of maxillary left lateral incisor and its successful management has satisfying esthetics and excellent function with no sign of resorption or ankylosis.
