Abstract | ||||
Diagnosing a vertical root fracture has been a challenge for both general dentists and endodontists. In this report, we emphasize the importance of obtaining radiographs from three angulations to aid in the diagnosis of vertical root fracture. This step is an easy and cost-effective way to give the clinician a three-dimensional image of the tooth anatomy/morphology and etiology and will hopefully aid in obtaining the correct diagnosis and treatment plan. | ||||
