Sažetak
Single visit reconstruction of the fractured crown can be completed with composite resin if there is no bleeding due to the soft tissue injury. Clinical inspection revealed complex crown fracture of the central incisor as well as simple horisontal fracture of the lateral incisor crown of the enamel-dentin type. Vertical fracture separated the palatal enamel wall from the rest of the lateral incisor crown. After the completion of the endodontic sanation, root canals were prepared for prefabricated composite posts and crown reconstructions were performed with Finger Tip Technique by using composite resin materials. The advantage of this kind of reconstruction is preservation of the hard dental crown tissue removed in case of prosthetic therapy, especially in younger patients. Reconstruction can be finished in one visit, without the need for a dental technician and laboratory.
