Abstract
|
|
|
|
Three patients (2 maxillary anterior teeth and 1 maxillary second premolar) underwent clinical crown lengthening procedures with forced eruption. All teeth had undergone complete root canal treatment prior to the procedure. Using an elastic band, extrusion of teeth was planned; during a 2-month period of extrusion, activation and fiberotomy were performed within a 2-week period. Following an 8-week period of maintenance, gingivectomy without bone surgery was performed. The patients were then referred to the department of prosthodontics for the final prosthodontic restoration. After completion of the final prosthodontic restoration, esthetically satisfactory results were reported in all three cases. These cases demonstrate the safety and simplicity of the clinical crown lengthening procedure through orthodontic extrusion for treatment of subgingivally fractured teeth; hence, it is more acceptable to the patient.
