Use of MTA in conjunction with an intraradicular endodontic file splint for treatment of horizontal root fracture- A case report.

Abstract

With the possibility of harnessing the regenerative potential of tissues, clinicians will find greater clinical instances where an old treatment modality used in conjunction with new materials gives greater clinical success in cases with poor clinical prognosis. This case typically illustrates such a situation where we successfully used MTA^TM in conjunction with an endodontic file used as an intracanal splint for repair of horizontally fractured root with minimal displacement of the fragments.
