Abstract
Fracture of anterior teeth is common in childhood due to many factors including sports. Reattachment is now a routine option for dental professionals whenever patients walk in with the fractured segment. It is now considered to be the priority instead of a composite resin build-up for better aesthetics. The success of this treatment modality depends on various factors. This case report discusses a situation where the fractured maxillary lateral incisor in a 9 year old patient is reattached. The root formation was not complete and the fracture was not involving the pulp. Hence it was important to protect the pulp as well as allow the root formation to complete naturally. No evidence of pulp exposure was found on clinical examination. Reattachment of the fractured segment was done with a seventh generation bonding agent and resin composite to restore aesthetics. Patient will be under long term follow up. The primary motto is to restore aesthetics and wait for root completion.
