What is the treatment for a complicated fracture more than 72 hours old?

  1. Cveck

  2. apexification

  3. pulpotomy

  4. direct pulp cap

The correct answer is: pulpotomy

A pulpotomy is the treatment for a complicated fracture more than 72 hours old, as it involves removing the damaged pulp tissue and sealing the root canal. This option is correct because it addresses the complications that may occur with an older fracture. The other options are not appropriate treatments for a complicated fracture. Cveck is a type of dental restoration and not a treatment for a fracture. Apexification is a treatment for immature teeth and not suitable for a complicated fracture. Direct pulp cap is used for minor tooth injuries and would not be enough to treat a complicated fracture. These options are incorrect because they do not adequately address the issue of a complicated fracture.
