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 MTATM in conjunction with an endodontic file used as an intracanal splint for repair of horizontally fractured root with minimal displacement of the fragments.  DOI: 10.21276/aohdr.1829
