Conservative Treatment of Complicated Crown Fractures Utilizing Mineral Trioxide Aggregate and Adhesive Reattachment of Tooth Fragments: A Case Series
This case series highlights the conservative management of complicated crown fractures in permanent incisors using mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) for pulp capping and adhesive techniques for fragment reattachment. Three patients aged 15-30 were treated and monitored over 12 months. All cases showed positive outcomes with maintained pulp vitality and satisfactory aesthetic and functional results. No signs of periapical pathology or secondary caries were observed. The adhesive reattachment of the tooth fragments provided excellent marginal adaptation and colour match, enhancing the overall success of the treatment.
