Popis: Traumatic dental injuries often occur to the teeth and their supporting tissues and they are the main reasons for emergency visit to a dental clinic. Horizontal root fractures usually are characterized by a fracture line that is perpendicular to the long axis of the root. Root fractures are diagnosed through clinical and radiographic examination. Treatment depends on the position of the fracture, the extent of root involvement, correct diagnosis, clinical management, and radiographic follow-up. This article describes the successful management of intraalveolar horizontal, apical root fracture treated with Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) barrier and Ellis class III and middle root fracture treated by using fiber post& core.
