title: Teeth in the line of fracture: a review.
abstract: The management of teeth in the line of fracture is still controversial. This lack of consensus about what is appropriate therapy led to a review of the literature. The various opinions expressed are reappraised in the context of the new treatment modalities available today, and recommendations are made to help the surgeon in his decision making.
