  • Title: A multidisciplinary approach to the management of a subgingivally fractured tooth: a clinical report.
    Author: Goenka P, Marwah N, Dutta S.
    Journal: J Prosthodont; 2011 Apr; 20(3):218-23. PubMed ID: 21284765.
    Abstract:
    Anterior tooth fracture is the most common type of trauma occurring to the dental tissues. Teeth fracturing at or below the gingival level usually have a poor prognosis, with extraction of the tooth being the most probable outcome. Clinical crown lengthening followed by prosthetic rehabilitation is a promising approach toward such cases. The clinical report presented here explains in detail the various treatment modalities available for such cases with special emphasis on orthodontic extrusion/forced eruption.
