چکیده

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.

Comparison of Diagnostic Accuracy of Cone Beam Computed Tomography and Digital Radiography for Detection of Vertical Root Fractures with and without Gutta Percha

  Objective: Diagnosis of vertical root fractures (VRFs) is critical in endodontics which most of the times occurs in endodontically treated teeth with root canal fillings such as gutta percha. Despite Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) has significantly enhanced image quality compared to digital radiography (DR) which aid the diagnosis, artifacts has remained as a problem in VRF detection . ...

Diagnostic Accuracy of Different Resolutions of Cone Beam Computed Tomography Imaging System for Detection of Vertical Root Fractures In Presence of Casting Posts

  Objective: The diagnosis of vertical root fracture (VRF) in endodontically treated teeth is a clinical challenge due to lack of specific clinical and radiographic signs. Although radiographic evaluation such as CBCT is helpful, intracanal posts can produce artifacts and may impair the quality of CBCT scans. This study aimed to compare the diagnostic accuracy of different resolutions of CBCT i...

Comparison of the Diagnostic Accuracy of Digital Intraoral Radiography with PSP and CBCT in the Detection of Horizontal and Vertical Dental Root Fractures

Background and Aim: Clinical and radiographic diagnoses of dental root fractures have always been difficult and require high accuracy in dental care and treatment. The aim of this study was to compare the diagnostic accuracy of intraoral digital radiography (PSP) and CBCT in the detection of horizontal and vertical root fractures (HRF and VRF). Materials and Methods: For this experimental stud...

The Effect of Intra-Canal Posts on Diagnostic Accuracy of Cone Beam Computed Tomography and Digital Radiography in Detection of Vertical Root Fractures

Objective: Diagnosis of vertical root fractures (VRFs) is critical in endodontics. Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT)  has significantly enhanced image quality compared to digital radiography (DR) and greatly aids the diagnosis of VRFs but, metal artifacts has remained as a problem in VRF detection.  This study evaluated the effect of intra canal posts on the diagnostic accuracy of CBCT and D...

Prevalence of vertical root fractures in extracted endodontically treated teeth.

AIM The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of vertical root fractures (VRF) in extracted endodontically treated teeth and to correlate the findings to previous studies and surveys. METHODOLOGY Root-canal-treated teeth were referred for extraction from a public dental clinic. The endodontic therapy had been completed by a variety of dentists. Each tooth was evaluated following ex...
