Natural Crown Bonding of Anterior Fractured Teeth at Different Levels of Complexity: A 14-Month Follow-up

Dental fractures comprise the most frequent form of traumatic dental injury and often require an immediate procedure for their treatment. The repositioning of fractured crown fragments using the bonding fragment technique offers several advantages, including the reestablishment of function, esthetics, shape, shine, and surface texture, in addition to the maintenance of the original contour and alignment of the teeth. The aim of this article is to describe a therapeutic approach used with a patient who suffered varying degrees of crown fractures in three teeth that were treated with adhesive fragment reattachment. The natural crown bonding technique, using tooth fragments and a direct composite resin, successfully restored all of the fractured anterior teeth. The clinical examinations showed good esthetics and periodontal health after a 14-month follow-up, proving that the technique is a good option for tooth fractures.
