Coronal fractures of permanent dentition are the most frequent types of dental injuries. One of the options for managing these fractures, when the tooth fragment is available and there is minimal violation of the biological width, is reattachment of the dental fragment. Recent developments in restorative material, placement techniques, preparation designs, and an adhesive protocol allow clinicians to predictably restore fractured teeth. Reattachment of a fractured fragment to the remaining tooth can provide better and long lasting esthetics, improved function, a positive psychological response and is a faster and less complicated procedure.
