Introduction

Longitudinal fracture Classified by AAE Transverse fracture craze lines; fractured cusp; cracked tooth; split tooth; and vertical root fracture Enamel fracture Enamel-Dentin fracture Enamel- dentin- pulp fracture Crown-root fracture without pulpal involvement Crown-root fracture with pulpal involvement Horizontal root fracture Bader JD, Martin JA, Shugars DA. Preliminary estimates of the incidence and consequences of tooth fracture. J Am Dent Assoc 1995: 126 : 1650–1654.

Longitudinal tooth fracture Linear fractures that tend to grow and change over time The keys to saving these teeth are to know: 1. How to identify and classify cracks; 2. The characteristic signs and symptoms; and 3. How to detect the crack as early in its development as possible Bader JD, Martin JA, Shugars DA. Preliminary estimates of the incidence and consequences of tooth fracture. J Am Dent Assoc 1995: 126 : 1650–1654.

Classification From least to most severe: craze lines; fractured cusp; cracked tooth; split tooth; and vertical root fracture Incidence of the tooth fracture

Step 1: where is crack/ fracture located? Facial or lingual in enamel only - Also common on marginal ridges Step 2: Are these separable segments? Non-separable (Incomplete fracture) Step 3: What type of crack/ fracture is it? Craze line Step 4: How to treat? No treatment or esthetic treatment only Craze lines

Step 1: where is crack/ fracture located? F-L and M-D in enamel and dentin of the crown and root Step 2: Are these separable segments? Non-separable (Incomplete fracture) Separable (Complete fracture) Step 3: What type of crack/ fracture is it? Incomplete Cuspal fracture ( Cuspal crack) Complete cuspal fracture Step 4: How to treat? Retain or remove cusp RCT if pulp is exposed Cuspally reinforced restoration - Remove cusp RCT if pulp is exposed Cuspally reinforced restoration Cuspal fracture

Incidence Etiopathogenesis Clinical features Diagnosis Treatment & Prognosis Prevention extensive deep interproximal caries or a subsequent large Class II restoration Unsupported and Undermined tooth structure Subjective findings Objective tests Radiographic findings Other findings Separable Non-separable Removal of the cusp Followed by placement of 3/4 th crown/ onlay / full coverage crown Cusp need not be removed - Cuspally reinforced restoration is indicated (crown/ onlay ) Root canal treatment: if pulp is exposed Remove fracture segment using a bur rather than extraction forcep

Crack tooth to split tooth Step 1: where is crack/ fracture located? M-D in enamel and dentin of the crown only or crown and root Step 2: Are these separable segments? Non-separable (Incomplete fracture) Separable (Complete fracture) Step 3: What type of crack/ fracture is it? Crack tooth Split tooth Step 4: How to treat? RCT if pulp is exposed Cuspally reinforced restoration Extraction - Extraction followed by FPD or Implant

Incidence (Rivera et al) Etiopathogenesis Clinical features Diagnosis Prevention Radiographic findings Subjective findings Objective tests Other findings Transillumination Staining with methylene blue dye Wedging forces to differentiate separable or non-separable fracture Surgical microscope Treatment & Prognosis Study Conclusion Tan et al. N=50 of root-filled cracked teeth with a diagnosis of irreversible pulpitis and determined a 2-year survival rate of 85.5%. Krell & Rivera 127 patients with teeth diagnosed with reversible pulpitis that had a cracked tooth placement of a crown restoration without performing root canal treatment - Within 6 months: 20% irreversible pulpitis or necrosis

Treatment based on location Spliting Types of healing Factors influences healing and prognosis IATD Guidelines Enamel fracture Enamel-dentin fracture Enamel-dentin-pulp fracture Crown-root fracture without pulpal involvement Crown-root fracture with pulpal involvement Conclusion References

Incidence Etiopathogenesis Clinical features Diagnosis Treatment & Prognosis Prevention Extraction (If fracture is deep apically) or Remove the fractured segment and perform crown lengthening or orthodontic extrusion Split tooth

Step 1: where is crack/ fracture located? F-L in root only Step 2: Are these separable segments? Non-separable (Incomplete fracture) - Involves one root surface Separable (Complete fracture) - Involves both root surfaces Step 3: What type of crack/ fracture is it? Incomplete vertical fracture Complete vertical fracture Step 4: How to treat? Extraction / removal of involved root followed by prosthesis Vertical fracture “Third most common” cause of tooth loss ( Kishen A; 2006) Prevalence: 2%-20% (Chang E et al;2016) Incidence: 1.4 times higher for men (Chan CP et al; 1999) No significant difference ( Seo DG et al; 2012)

Related to Dentist Risk Factors Related to tooth - Reduced mechanical properties of tooth structure - Tooth form ( Lertchirakarn V et al; 2003) - Anatomical location - Changes in dentinal Microstructure - Post endodontic restoration - Type of endodontic treatment ( Karygianni L et al; 2014) - Immature teeth with incomplete root formation - Endodontic access cavity preparation ( Seo et al; 2012) - Root canal preparation - Root canal obturation - Post space preparation - Coronal restoration - ETT as abutment

Ellis and Davey’s Classification of tooth fracture (1970)

Type of fracture Clinical findings Enamel fracture • A complete fracture of the enamel • Loss of enamel. No visible sign of exposed dentin • Not tender. If tenderness is observed, evaluate the tooth for a possible luxation or root fracture injury • Normal mobility • Sensibility pulp test: usually positive Radiographic findings Enamel loss is visible • Radiographs recommended: periapical, occlusal, and eccentric exposures. They are recommended in order to rule out the possible presence of a root fracture or a luxation injury • Radiograph of lip or cheek lacerations to search for tooth fragments or foreign materials Treatment If the tooth fragment is available, it can be bonded to the tooth Contouring or restoration with composite resin depending on the extent and location of the fracture Outcome Favourable: • Asymptomatic • Positive response to pulp testing • Continuing root development in immature teeth • Continue to next evaluation Unfavourable : • Symptomatic • Negative response to pulp testing • Signs of apical periodontitis • No continuing root development in immature teeth • Endodontic therapy appropriate for stage of root development is indicated DiAngelis AJ, Andreasen JO, Ebeleseder KA, Kenny DJ, Trope M, Sigurdsson A, Andersson L, Bourguignon C, Flores MT, Hicks ML, Lenzi AR.

Type of fracture Clinical findings Enamel–dentin fracture • A fracture confined to enamel and dentin with loss of tooth structure, but not exposing the pulp • Percussion test: not tender. If tenderness is observed, evaluate the tooth for possible luxation or root fracture injury • Normal mobility • Sensibility pulp test: usually positive Radiographic findings Enamel–dentin loss is visible • Radiographs recommended: periapical, occlusal, and eccentric exposure to rule out tooth displacement or possible presence of root fracture • Radiograph of lip or cheek lacerations to search for tooth fragments or foreign materials Treatment - Fragment reattachment: if available - Provisional restoration: Glass inomer cement - Final restoration: composite resin - If the exposed dentin is within 0.5 mm of the pulp (pink, no bleeding): place calcium hydroxide base and cover with a material such as a glass ionomer Outcome Favourable: • Asymptomatic • Positive response to pulp testing • Continuing root development in immature teeth • Continue to next evaluation Unfavourable : • Symptomatic • Negative response to pulp testing • Signs of apical periodontitis • No continuing root development in immature teeth • Endodontic therapy appropriate for stage of root development is indicated DiAngelis AJ, Andreasen JO, Ebeleseder KA, Kenny DJ, Trope M, Sigurdsson A, Andersson L, Bourguignon C, Flores MT, Hicks ML, Lenzi AR.

Enamel-Dentin fracture

Type of fracture Clinical findings Enamel–dentin pulp fracture A fracture involving enamel and dentin with loss of tooth structure and exposure of the pulp. • Normal mobility • Percussion test: not tender. If tenderness is observed, evaluate for possible luxation or root fracture injury • Exposed pulp sensitive to stimuli Radiographic findings Enamel–dentin loss visible • Radiographs recommended: periapical, occlusal, and eccentric exposures to rule out tooth displacement or possible presence of root fracture • Radiograph of lip or cheek lacerations to search for tooth fragments or foreign materials Treatment Immature teeth: pulp capping/ partial pulpotomy Mature teeth: RCT recommended Fragment reattachment: if available DiAngelis AJ, Andreasen JO, Ebeleseder KA, Kenny DJ, Trope M, Sigurdsson A, Andersson L, Bourguignon C, Flores MT, Hicks ML, Lenzi AR.
