Multi-disciplinary approach for the treatment of maxillary anterior teeth with luxation injuries and complicated crown fractures: A case report
Abstract
Anterior tooth fractures are commonly seen types of dental injury. In the treatment of
complicated crown fractures, two treatment options as extraction and root canal treatment
could be considered due to the remaining tooth structure. Endodontic treatment is vital in order
to maintain function and provides better aesthetics and reliefs the patient’s pain. The aim of
this case report is to present a 17-years-old female patient’s treatment and five-years follow-up
radiographs and photographs. Patient had the multiple traumatized (luxation and complicated
crown fractures) maxillary incisor teeth with periapical lesions. After careful examination and
multidisciplinary treatment, periapical lesions were healed, teeth and adjacent tissues were
healthy and functional. Endodontic treatment must be considered by clinicans instead of
extraction of tooth as a priority.
