Title: Diagnosis and management of teeth with vertical root fractures. Author: Moule AJ, Kahler B. Journal: Aust Dent J; 1999 Jun; 44(2):75-87. PubMed ID: 10452161. Abstract: Vertical fractures in teeth can present difficulties in diagnosis. There are, however, many specific clinical and radiographical signs which, when present, can alert clinicians to the existence of a fracture. In this review, the diagnosis of vertical root fractures is discussed in detail, and examples are presented of clinical and radiographic signs associated with these fractured teeth. Treatment alternatives are discussed for both posterior and anterior teeth.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
