Özet

Aim: To present the successful treatment of a vertically fractured tooth by intentional re-plantation after root canal treatment and repair with an adhesive resin. Summary Vertical root fracture is a challenging problem in respect of diagnosis and management options. In this case, a vertically fractured maxillary premolar was treated by intentional re-plantation after repairing it with 4-Methacryloxyethyl trimellitate anhyride/methacrylate-tri-n-butyl borane (4-META/MMA-TBB) resin cement. At the 36-month follow-up, the tooth was asymptomatic, radiographically sound with reduced deep periodontal pockets and vertical bone loss. Key learning points. Intentional replantation after repairing fractured fragments with an adhesive resin extraorally is a treatment option. Long-term follow-up is necessary to evaluate the outcome of this technique. © 2011 International Endodontic Journal.
