Abstract
The clinical treatment of anterior tooth fractures requires specialized knowledge, technical skill, and a degree of artistic sense to ensure successful treatment. Herein, we describe the reattachment of an original tooth fragment with endodontic involvement via the utilization of a micro-hybrid composite resin and an aesthetic fiberglass post.
