Prosthetic restoration after atraumatic surgical extrusion: a report of two cases

Preservation and restoration of teeth with little coronal tooth structure due to crown-root fractures or caries lesions, ensuring restoration margins do not encroach on the biologic width, constitute a challenge. Available treatment options include surgical crown lengthening and orthodontic or surgical extrusion. This report presents two patients in which teeth were restored by surgical extrusion with an atraumatic extraction system and prosthetic therapy.
