| Popis: | BACKGROUND: Root fractures are uncommon injuries in permanent teeth and account for only 0.5–7% of dental trauma. It occurs more frequently in fully erupted permanent teeth, in which the completely formed root with closed apices is solidly supported in the bone and periodontium. This may lead to complex consequences due to the combined damage to the pulp, dentine, cementum, bone, and periodontium. They are transverse to oblique in direction and result from a horizontal impact. Their incidence is more in the middle third of the root than at the cervical and apical thirds. CASE REPORT: This paper describes a case of complicated horizontal root fracture at the middle third of the maxillary right central incisor. After receiving an endodontic treatment, the fractured root fragments of the maxillary right central incisors were united with the help of a glass fibre post. Eventually, the incisor was restored with a zirconia crown. CONCLUSION: Follow-up after a year revealed a well-stabilized assembly of the root fragments and the post. |
