title: Autogenous attachment technique with esthetics in mind: trauma management case report.
abstract: The majority of dental trauma involves anterior teeth, especially the maxillary central incisors. A crown fracture with pulp tissue involvement, severe sensitivity, and pain is certainly unpleasant for the patient. This case report will discuss the endodontic therapy and restoration with an autogenous tooth fragment attachment technique. When treating an emergency situation that involves trauma, it is challenging to provide the patient with both pain relief and esthetic restoration.
