Abstract
Coronal fractures of the anterior teeth give an agonizing experience for a young individual due to the physical disfigurement, and the psychological impact that is imposed on them. One of the options for managing complicated/uncomplicated crown fractures when the tooth fragment is available, and there is no or minimal violation of the biological width is the rebonding of the fractured segment. This treatment approach is promising, providing good and long-lasting esthetics as it helps in maintaining the tooth's original anatomic form, hue, and surface texture. This article describes three case reports of successful reattachment of fractured tooth fragments. Following the root canal treatment procedures, prefabricated posts were cemented as intraradicular splint to reattach the fractured segments.
