ABSTRACT
Re-restoring endodontically treated teeth with complicated crown or crown root fractures is a major challenge for dental practitioners, because they can present difficulties for successful treatment. This report describes the management of supragingivally complicated crown fracture of an endodontically treated maxillary lateral incisor. The involved tooth was restored with the reattachment procedure using light transmitting fiber post. After 11 months, the reattached tooth had a satisfying function, favorable physiological and esthetic outcomes and healthy surrounding periodontal structures.

In the present report, a case with a radiopaque mass within the right maxillary sinus antrum is presented, and the clinical/radiographic features of the lesion are provided. The patient's dental history has revealed extrusion of calcium hydroxide into the periapical area during a previous endodontic treatment. This finding has underscored the need to discuss the potential role of endodontic materials in the development of calcified tissues within the adjacent body cavities.
