Abstract
Paediatric dental trauma presentation is a common occurrence which dentists are faced with in a general dental practice setting. Most dental traumas are related to the anterior teeth and emergency care must be to a high standard when dealing with such incidences. A thorough and accurate diagnosis as well as a comprehensive treatment plan is essential. Furthermore, good communication for consent, giving explanations and providing treatment options is a prerequisite for clinical treatment. This case report describes a clinical case of complicated crown fractures of the UR1 and UL1 in a 10-year-old patient, where both incisors were directly pulp capped with Calcium Hydroxide and original fragments reattached. Following from this, four months later the UR1 attained another trauma and was treated elsewhere but re-presented with pain and infection. The UR1 was treated with root canal treatment while the UL1 remained vital and asymptomatic, till this date.
