Central Incisor Fracture

Assessment, treatment, and remarks on a Type 1 immediate implant replacement of an upper left central incisor with a vertical root fracture. A healthy, 21-year-old male patient presented with traumatic fracture of his upper left central incisor. The patient's gingival phenotype was classified as medium. The clinical image demonstrates the characteristics of a medium phenotype with long, thin dental papillae combined with thick attached gingival tissues. The tooth had both a vertical root fracture and a horizontal fracture of the crown, resulting in exposure of the pulp and loss of root integrity.

* General SAC assessment modifiers that are also part of the ERA. To avoid redundancy they are listed in this section even if no complete ERA has been made.

** Not applicable to the ERA of immediate placement cases and replaced by "Socket Integrity" listed below under "Surgical SAC Classification". For all other placement types this value is a classification determinant and listed here even if no complete ERA has been made.
