Root fracture
text:
Root fracture of the tooth is a dentine cementum fracture involving the pulp. Traumatic root fracture occurs most often in the middle third of the roots of fully erupted and fully formed teeth. However, root treated teeth are more susceptible to root fracture, as this involves removing root dentine, thereby weakening the tooth. Objectives of the treatment is to reposition the coronal fragments to allow revascularisation of the tooth, therefore maintaining aesthetics and functional integrity.
