Excellent work and documentation! There are times when we must try to save a tooth;
the patient was lucky to be in your chair.

Keep us informed and post the follow-up radiographs - Fred

Patrick, Fantastic effort & documentation! Thank you for preparing and sharing this
case with us.

How would you judge prognosis of this tooth? Do you think the remaining tooth
substance is strong enough to withstand occlusal forces? - Maarten
