A procedure is described whereby enamel‐dentin fragments can be bonded to the remaining tooth substance. The tooth and tooth fragment are conditioned with EDTA and GLUMA® and then bonded together with a light‐cured composite resin. Results based on the restoration of 76 complicated and uncomplicated crown fractures of permanent incisors with up to 2 years' observation indicate that teeth bonded with GLUMA® can withstand normal chewing forces. Long‐term studies on the retention of bonded fragments, color stability and pulpal reaction to bonding are now in progress.
