Intentional replantation with 180° rotation of a complicated crown-root fracture: A Case Report

摘要

Complicated crown root fractures are mostly difficult to treat and have a poor prognosis. To restore the biological space, intentional replantation may be chosen when other immediate treatment options are not viable. Intentional replantation with tooth rotation consists of extraction, 180° rotation and replantation, thereby maintaining the biological width. This article presents management of a maxillary central incisor with complicated crown root fracture with open apex. The tooth was rotated and splinted for one week. The apex was closed with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) followed by obturation and post placement. The incompletely obturated adjacent tooth was non-surgically managed by retreatment. Finally, glass fibre post followed by crown with indirect composite built up was made. Patient was followed up every three months for the next two years without any complications.
