Abstract:
This article presents an overview of the evolution of the incisal edge reattachment procedure. Case reports are described of patients presenting with traumatised teeth in which the reattachment procedure was performed. A review is provided of present in vivo studies detailing long-term success rates in the clinical application of this procedure. Finally, a recommended technique for diagnosis and treatment is offered to improve success in this procedure which may benefit a significant segment of the paediatric and adolescent populations.
