Abstract:
An example of contrasting responses in two root fractured teeth in a 16-year-old male seriously injured in a hit-and-run motor accident is documented over a 34-year 9-month period. Extended non-surgical endodontic management was necessary for one of the root-fractured central incisors that had developed an infective marginal breakdown, and by contrast, the contralateral incisor with a diagnosis of internal surface resorption and internal tunneling resorption was carefully monitored to ultimate resolution.
