Restoration of a fractured anterior tooth.
A fragment of tooth missing for three years was found in the patients' lower lip. The fragment was surgically removed and cleaned. It was restored to its original position on the maxillary left incisor with an acid etch resin technique. After three months, the restoration was satisfactory.
