“…Additional retention was placed which increases the micromechanical retention of the resin composite and adhesive bonding agent. Some retention features available for fragment reattachment are an external chamfer, beveling, over contour technique, and internal grove [14,15]. An internal groove was the mechanical retention elected in this clinical case because it preserves the enamel for adhesive attachment.…”

“…Over the last decade, many adhesive materials and different reattachment techniques have been studied in order to improve the durability of the repair. External chamfer, beveling, over contour technique and an internal grove, are examples procedures that may improve the retention of the fragment [13][14][15]. The purpose of this case presentation is to report a fragment reattachment technique following traumatic fracture of a central incisor on a child.…”

If immediately following a traumatic event, the detached fragments is gathered and brought to the emergency room with the patient, the fragment reattachment should be considered one option for the treatment plan. Store the tooth fragment in an correct solution, apply an appropriate resin composite material and add a proper mechanical retention, may offer higher esthetic result, better bond strength and improved clinical longevity, compared with other types of restorative procedures.

“…In this technique, the external bevel is performed to the fractured piece and the remainder of the tooth prior to reattachment. This encountered some degree of difficulty to reestablish accurate fit between the fractured piece and the remainder of the tooth (Vijayaprabha et al 2012). The over contour technique involves preparation of the buccal surface of both the fractured piece and the remainder of the tooth.…”

Anterior teeth fractures occur daily, with the main patient demand to restore esthetically the resultant defect. There is nothing more esthetic than the tooth itself. Many techniques were described to use the fractured piece to restore this defect in case of accurate fit. The objective of this article is to summarize these techniques to give the dental practitioners the opportunity to restore the fractured tooth more conservatively and in the same time more esthetically. In addition, it throws light on the prevalence and etiology of tooth fracture. Frontal teeth are subjected to traumas more than other teeth in the mouth. These traumas may lead to tooth fracture with or without pulp involvement. In attempts to restore the fractured tooth in more esthetic and conservative manner, the fractured piece may be used as a restorative material. This treatment modality has gained increased popularity among dental practitioner due to the continuous development in the adhesive field. Several techniques were used. These techniques include, simple reattachment, external chamfer, over contouring, internal dentin bevel, and internal enamel bevel. All these techniques try to afford the highest fracture resistance accompanied with the least possible tooth preparation. Combination of two or more technique would result in better performance.

“…5 Despite recent developments in adhesive materials and restorative techniques, there is no restorative material that can reproduce the esthetic and function of the natural dental structures. 6 Although full ceramic crowns and laminate veneers provide satisfactory results with their good esthetic properties and color stabilities, these treatment approaches are very destructive in the restoration of fractured anterior teeth. 7 Compared with other restorative techniques, reattachment of fractured fragments, which offers improved esthetics and function, is the most conservative treatment approach.…”

Introduction:The aim of the present study was to evaluate and compare the effect of acidetching and Er, Cr:YSGG laser treatment before the reattachment of incisal fragments in coronal fractures of permanent incisor teeth. Methods: Sixty-six sound human maxillary incisors were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=22). Teeth were embedded in self-cure acrylic resins by leaving one-third of the crowns out, and uncomplicated crown fractures were obtained using an Instron testing device. The fragments were reattached using 3 different procedures and a hybrid resin composite (Z250): Group I: Acid etching + Prime & Bond NT; Group II: Er,Cr:YSGG + Prime & Bond NT; Group III: Er,Cr:YSGG + Acid etching + Prime & Bond NT. The percentages of shear bond strengths were determined by comparing fracture strengths of sound and reattached teeth for 3 groups. All data were analyzed statistically with Kruskal-Wallis H test. Results: Mean fracture strengths of the reattached fragments were between 51.02% and 62.93% of that of the sound teeth in all groups. Group I had significantly higher percentages of shear bond strength values (P < 0.05) when compared to group II and group III. No significant difference (P > 0.05) was found between group II and group III. Conclusion:The findings of the present study show that Er,Cr:YSGG laser irradiation prior to the reattachment of incisal fragments has a negative effect on fracture strength.
