Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Review Description
Diagnostic and treatment implications of traumatic root fractures in the coronal third of permanent anterior teeth are reported. A review of the literature imposes a reevaluation of the treatment of these fractures. The teeth with root fractures should not be extracted and endodontic therapy should not be performed unless there is evidence of a pulp necrosis. The authors suggest trying a conservative treatment by repositioning, fixation and relief of occlusion of the teeth with fractures. The fixation is maintained over six months to improve the possibility of recovery. The clinical cases presented prove the long-term prognosis is good even if the location of fracture is near the gingival crevice. The conservative treatment doesn't preclude in case of failure, endodontic, orthodontic and prosthetic therapy. Moreover, according to the authors, conservative treatment represents the most simple, immediate and physiologic solution of functional aesthetic and psychologic problems, especially in young patients.
