This case report shows the treatment of a severe traumatic tooth injury. For the maxillary right central incisor, the trauma was considered a complicated crown-root fracture. The level of the fracture line, the length of the remaining root segment, and the presence and condition of the tooth fragment determined the type of therapy. Traumatized teeth with fractures below the alveolar crest are often considered hopeless. As this report shows, the treatment of a complicated crown-root fracture in the esthetic region can be challenging. Orthodontic extrusion and crown-length surgery were performed to bring the fracture line above the alveolar bone crest. A multidisciplinary approach was required for complete rehabilitation of the traumatized maxillary incisor. Suggestions are made to improve treatment planning of complicated crown-root fractures.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the prognosis of root canal treatment (RCT) in dogs with complicated crown-root fractures (CCRFs) of the maxillary fourth premolar (PM4), focusing on the impact of periodontal probing depth (PPD) and furcation involvement on treatment outcomes.
Methods: The study analyzed 122 PM4 teeth affected by CCRF in dogs. The primary outcomes were the success rates of RCT, measured against PPD, and the degree of furcation involvement (stages F0, F1, and F2).

Complicated crown-root fracture is a severe dental injury that affects the enamel, dentine, cementum, and pulp, representing a small percentage of dental trauma cases in permanent teeth. This case report discusses the management of a complicated crown-root fracture to the maxillary left central incisor in a 14-year-old male patient following a motor vehicle accident. The fracture extended subgingivally, complicating access and restoration.

Article Synopsis
- Maxillary third molar extractions often lead to complications like oroantral communications, making it hard for inexperienced clinicians to evaluate risks and difficulty levels.
- A case study using advanced imaging techniques explored variables affecting extraction outcomes, including bone volume, quality, and the newly defined "tegmen bone."
- The findings suggest that predictive analysis can enhance decision-making in complex tooth extractions by focusing on anatomical factors specific to each case.
