Tooth fragment reattachment techniques-A systematic review.

Background/aim: Several strategies have been developed for tooth fragment reattachment following fracture. Although many techniques have been reported, there is no consensus on which one has the best results in terms of the bond strength between the fragment and the dentin over time. The aim of this study was to assess the currently reported tooth fragment reattachment techniques for fractured crowns of anterior teeth.

Effect of dehydration and rehydration intervals on fracture resistance of reattached tooth fragments using a multimode adhesive.

Background/aims: The tooth fragment bonding technique, frequently used to restore traumatized teeth, may be affected by dehydration/rehydration periods. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of different dry and wet storage intervals on multimode adhesive bonding between reattached fragments and teeth.

Materials And Methods: Eighty-four bovine incisors were fractured and randomized into groups (n=12).
