Abstract:
This report presents a case of a 9-year-old child with a complicated crown-root fracture of the maxillary central incisor, accompanied with a root fracture. The treatment strategy was minimally invasive, focusing on vital pulp preservation, root fracture recovery, and crown restoration. The fractured crown was reattached using resin short posts to enhance retention, resulting in aesthetic and functional restoration of the anterior teeth. A 2-year follow-up revealed favorable clinical and radiographic outcomes.
