Abstract
Restoration of severly damaged teeth requires comprehensive, carefully planned pretreatment.Usually, the teeth with fractures or caries extended upto or below the alveolar crest, can be treated by conventional surgical crown lengthening at the expense of supporting bone. Forced eruption orextrusion of teeth is an alternative procodure to overcome problems with dental esthetics and removing of supporting tissues.Two case reports are used as a basis for reviewing the forced eruption with and without supracrestal fibrotomy.
