  • Title: Cracked teeth--treatment rationale and case management: case reports.
    Author: Liu HH, Sidhu SK.
    Journal: Quintessence Int; 1995 Jul; 26(7):485-92. PubMed ID: 8935034.
    Abstract:
    The treatment rationale for, and successful management of, six teeth with cracks in the form of incomplete vertical fractures are reported. Further crack propagation was prevented by placement of either stainless steel orthodontic bands or aluminum or acrylic resin provisional crowns, and endodontic treatment was subsequently carried out. The teeth were restored with intraradicular amalgam cores and complete veneer crowns. The teeth were reexamined periodically for up to 3.5 years after treatment. During the period of review, all teeth remained asymptomatic.
