Abstract
The aim of this article is to report a successful treatment of crown en masse fracture. Ellis Class VIII tooth fracture involves the loss of crown en-masse and its replacement. Fracture of a tooth below gingival attachment or crest of the alveolar bone requires the treatment procedures such as crown lengthening with electrosurgery or periodontal surgery with removal of bone and the orthodontic extrusion. A case of complicated crown fracture of tooth number 21 in a 13‐year‐old boy is presented. To minimize the psychological trauma resulting from extraction, fiber post, and core buildup of maxillary anterior tooth was planned followed by porcelain-fused metal crown after endodontic treatment of the tooth diagnosed as Ellis Class VIII fracture.
