title: Rapid reattachment of fractured crown segment: an update.
abstract: The technique of reattaching traumatically fractured crown segments using bonded tooth-colored materials has improved over the last decade. The latest advancement is the use of a new visible light-hardened glass ionomer material for rapid initial replacement of detached coronal structure. This paper demonstrates a step-by-step procedure for coronal repair using light-hardened glass ionomer material and application of broad plane bonded composite resin for strength and natural appearance.
