Furthermore, the trauma has often a great impact on the appearance and well being of the patient. In this case trauma resulted in a very deep complicated crown-root fracture of one incisor and a complicated crown fracture in another incisor of a 47-year-old woman.

Eleven months after trauma, the treated teeth exhibited good healing and normal function.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
