ABSTRACT
Traumatic dental injuries are very common and mainly affect children and adolescents. Maxillary incisors are more prone to fracture and affect the facial appearance of the patient. Reattachment of fractured fragment provides immediate treatment with better esthetics in a short time by preserving dental tissues and conserves sound tooth structure, maintaining the original anatomy and translucency of tooth structure. The present case report describes management of an Ellis class III fracture of maxillary right central incisor treated endodontically followed by reattachment of the same fragment.
