RESUMO
Horizontal root fractures are a type of traumatic dental injury. Horizontal root fractures are classified as apical third, middle third, and cervical third of the root based on the fracture line and on the degree of dislocation of the coronal fragment. The prognosis of the tooth depends on the patient’s age, stage of root growth, mobility of the coronal fragment and diastasis of the fragments. Proper clinical and radiographic examination should be done to reveal apical root fractures. Hence, the treatment plan can be decided depending on the type of fracture and extent of fracture line. This review was conducted to evaluate the apical third horizontal root fractures in order to determine the appropriate therapy.

This case report illustrates the management of four impacted canines in an adult patient associated with prolonged retention of the four deciduous teeth. The treatment plan was formulated to extract the lower deciduous teeth, application of the forced eruption with the permanent canines, and extract the upper permanent canines and maintenance of the maxillary deciduous canines. No reshaping of the maxillary deciduous teeth was performed because the patient was satisfied with the results.

Radicular fractures in permanent teeth are uncommon injuries among dental traumas, being only 0.5-7% of the cases. Management of horizontal root fractures presents a formidable challenge for clinicians because of the difficulty of achieving a stable reunion of fracture fragments. This case report presents the management of horizontally fractured canine by approximation of fracture fragments, fiber splinting, and use of MTA - both as an obturating material and intra-radicular splint. Short-term follow-up of the case showed promising results both clinically and radiographically.
