  • Title: Treatment of horizontal root-fractured maxillary incisors--a case report.
    Author: Polat-Ozsoy O, Gülsahi K, Veziroğlu F.
    Journal: Dent Traumatol; 2008 Dec; 24(6):e91-5. PubMed ID: 19021647.
    Abstract:
    Traumatic dental injuries often occur to the teeth and their supporting tissues and they are the main reasons for emergency visit to a dental clinic. Management of a fracture depends on its position and the extent of root involvement. Horizontal root fractures are not seen frequently and the treatment consists of reduction and long-term rigid fixation of the coronal segment. The present case demonstrates the successful management of two horizontally fractured maxillary central incisors with a follow-up period of 9 months.
