Aesthetic rehabilitation of Ellis class III fracture
A case report
Keywords:
aesthetics rehabilitation, Ellis class III fracture, fiber post, PFMAbstract
Trauma to anterior teeth has a significant impact on social well being of patient especially in teenagers. A fractured anterior tooth needs immediate clinical attention. If it is left untreated it causes damage to dentition and affects the aesthetic of patient. It even has a psychological impact on the patient. Because of the position in the arch the majority of dental injuries involve the anterior teeth, especially the maxillary incisors. In this case the broken fragment was not preserved by the patient. Thus firstly endodontic treatment is done followed by placement of post. Composite build up was done. Permanent restoration with porcelain fused metal (PFM) is opted to overcome the problem of esthetics and functional durability.
