Abstract
Fracture of anterior teeth is most common type of dento-alveolar traumatic injuries. It mostly affects upper anterior teeth due to its exposed position in the dental arch which further leads to psychological stress and anxiety to patient. There have been various treatment modalities for these type of complicated crown root fractures. This case report describes multidisciplinary approach for fragment re attachment of maxillary permanent central incisior using dentin adhesives. A 25 year old, patient reported with oblique fracture of upper right central incisior with fracture line extending subginvially in palatal aspect. The margins were re-established using full thickness mucoperiosteal flap. The broken fragment was re attached with a glass fibre post to increase the retention. On further follow up, it establishes an esthetic and successful outcome of this conservative approach
