Description
Summary:Fracture of anterior crown leads to uneasiness and severe psychological, functional, aesthetic and phonetic problems, which affects social relationships. [...]techniques that may speed up and simplify the treatment, restore the aesthetics and improve the long-term success rates are of great value. According to the glossary of prosthodontic terms [3], a splint is defined as "a rigid or flexible device that maintains in position a displaced or movable part." [...]conduction of natural light through the crowns is allowed because its translucent fibers yield to the color properties of composites, providing a remarkably aesthetic result: translucency, tenaciousness, adaptability, resistance to impact and traction [9]. [...]there is a potential of generating stress accumulation and shear planes that will result in failure and fracture of the composite.
