Coronal fracture with invasion of the biologic width: a case report

Quintessence Int. 1993 Feb;24(2):85-91.

Abstract

To repair a coronal fracture with invasion of the biologic width, flap surgery with osteotomy and osteoplasty localized on the fractured tooth was performed, and the crown was reattached to the tooth remnant with a composite resin system. Results after 6 years revealed optimal periodontal health and reasonable esthetics.
