ABSTRACT
Surgical extrusion of teeth is a one-step procedure, is simpler and less time-consuming than orthodontic extrusion, which requires multiple visits to place and adjust orthodontic appliances. 150 consecutive patients were selected for randomized clinical trial of age ranging from 18 years to 45 years. All the patients complained of broken tooth and wanted to get it rehabilitated. None of the extruded teeth, with 1:2 crown to root ratio, showed any mobility before and after crown cementation. As being cost effective, this technique had better patient compliance and a very good patient satisfaction.
