A reattachment technique for fractured incisor tooth fragments: a case history and discussion of alternative techniques.
This paper describes the case history of a patient for whom two fractured central incisor fragments were reattached using an acid etch technique. The case demonstrates a method, which has not been reported previously, using pins to reinforce the attachment. Finally the case shows the failure of the reattachment on one central incisor and subsequent successful treatment by the use of a veneer crown.
