Tratamento e proservação da fratura horizontal em incisivo superior: uma visão conservadora.

Abstract

This case report describes the clinical approach of a horizontal dental fracture in the middle third of the root of a right upper central incisor. The procedures that were proposed for the dental element were the use of the semi-rigid containment for stabilization of the fragment, endodontic treatment being performed the mechanical chemical preparation with RECIPROC instrument (R50) in element 21 and with Hedstroem files (HD140) in the upper right incisor, with monthly exchanges of calcium hydroxide over an average period of more than one year. In addition to the fractured element, the endodontic treatment of element 21 was performed, responding positively to the proposed treatment, without obvious endodontic repercussions. It can be concluded that the treatment established so far was well indicated for the case, since it can be observed the beginning of a reconstruction between the fragments and both elements, they remain without internal or external resorptions.
