Abstract
Root fractures occur more commonly in fully erupted permanent teeth with closed apices in which the completely formed root is solidly supported in the bone and periodontium. The consequences can be multifaceted because of collective damage to the pulp, dentine, cementum, bone, and periodontium. Management of horizontal root fractures depends on several factors, with the effect of various clinical modalities have been suggested. This case report describes the treatment of permanent maxillary right central incisors, treated with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) and follow up showed a successful treatment outcome.
