Biomechanical considerations in restoring endodontically treated teeth
David Assif,C. Gorfil +1 more
TL;DR: Biomechanical problems are analyzed, and a recommended clinical approach is presented, suggesting that the post did not improve the resistance to fracture during occlusion and did not support the restoration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms and risk factors for fracture predilection in endodontically treated teeth
TL;DR: Different mechanisms of fracture resistance in dentine and the biomechanical causes of fracture predilection in restored endodontically treated teeth are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
An evaluation of endodontically treated vertically fractured teeth.
TL;DR: The maxillary second premolars and mesial roots of the mandibular molars were the most fractured teeth and the general practitioners correctly diagnosed vertical root fracture in only one-third of the 92 fractured teeth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of vertical root fractures in extracted endodontically treated teeth.
TL;DR: The relatively high prevalence of vertical root fractures in this survey compared with previous clinical and radiographic surveys was probably related to the difficulties in making a clinical diagnosis of vertical fractures before extraction.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of canal preparation and filling on the incidence of dentinal defects
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the incidence of defects in root dentine before and after root canal preparation and filling and found that canal preparation alone created significantly more defects than unprepared canals (P < 0.05).

Determination of the moisture content of vital and pulpless teeth
TL;DR: The object of this study was to determine the water content of pulpless teeth as one of the possible factors contributing toward tooth brittleness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Root fractures due to corrosion Diagnostic aspects
JøRGEN Rud,Karl-Ake Omnell +1 more
TL;DR: A series of 468 teeth with root fractures was evaluated to determine the clinical and radiographic criteria which may be used in diagnosing these fractures, mainly caused by corrosion of root canal pins and/or posts.
Journal ArticleDOI
A study of failures after endodontic surgery by radiographic, histologic and stereomicroscopic methods.
Jorgen Rud,J.O. Andreasen +1 more
TL;DR: It was found that most failures could be related to an insufficient debridement and canal obturation, and the root filling materials used were found to be non-irritant to the periapical tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crazing of Tooth Structure Associated with Placement of Pins for Amalgam Restorations
TL;DR: Fluorescent dye was used to record the occurrence of craze lines during in vitro stainless steel pin procedures, and the self-threading regular pin group produced more Craze lines than did the other pin groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alveolar bone loss associated with vertical root fractures. Report of six cases.
TL;DR: Six cases of vertical root fractures accompanied by vertical bone loss are presented, and the definitive treatment in each case was extraction of the tooth or root amputation.
