  • Title: Reattachment using a fragment from an extracted tooth to treat complicated coronal fracture.
    Author: Demarco FF, de Moura FR, Tarquinio SB, Lima FG.
    Journal: Dent Traumatol; 2008 Apr; 24(2):257-61. PubMed ID: 18352937.
    Abstract:
    Reattachment of fragment is the preferred alternative to restore the fractured teeth, offering several advantages. Partial pulpotomy has demonstrated satisfactory results as a conservative treatment for pulp exposures because of trauma. This study reports a case in which the treatment of a complicated coronal fracture was accomplished by partial pulpotomy and reattachment of a dental fragment obtained from an extracted tooth using composite resin. The results show the feasibility of the conservative pulp therapy and the restorative approach.
