  • Title: [Root fracture and tooth luxation. Endo-orthodontic technic after 15 years].
    Author: Caprioglio D, Lavagnoli G.
    Journal: Dent Cadmos; 1989 Feb 28; 57(3):32-50. PubMed ID: 2636163.
    Abstract:
    The authors described a personal treatment method for the traumatic root fractures in the permanent incisors, and the review of their results after 15 years. The method consists in the good immobilisation and fixation of the injured teeth, with orthodontic bands and brackets and arch wire. They put this orthodontic contention for one-two months, and after x-ray control and pulp vitality checks, removed it. They presented also the use of the same technique in the luxations of permanent incisors, and compared the results. In the root fractures the authors obtain good long distance results, such as pulp vitality, good health, calcified tissue in the fracture zone, good stability of the tooth. Otherwise in the incisors luxations they frequently founded pulp necrosis, and root resorption in the long distance controls.
