Abstract
In the present case, decoronation and root submergence of a necrotic maxillary central incisor were performed for a 13-year-old girl. The root canal was filled with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), which was covered with resin-modified glass ionomer. Apexification with MTA was performed for her other maxillary central incisor, and the edentulous region was restored using a fiber-reinforced composite bridge. Long-term follow-up indicated that decoronation might be a viable option to maintain the alveolar bone.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Case Reports is different from other case report journals. Our aim is to directly improve global health and increase clinical understanding using case reports to convey important best practice information. We welcome case reports from all areas of Medicine, Nursing, Dentistry, and Veterinary Science and may include: -Any clinical case or procedure which illustrates an important best practice teaching message -Any clinical case or procedure which illustrates the appropriate use of an important clinical guideline or systematic review. As well as: -The management of novel or very uncommon diseases -A common disease presenting in an uncommon way -An uncommon disease masquerading as something more common -Cases which expand understanding of disease pathogenesis -Cases where the teaching point is based on an error -Cases which allow us to re-think established medical lore -Unreported adverse effects of interventions (drug, procedural, or other).
