Diagnosis of Vertical Root Fractures in Endodontically Treated Teeth

Vertical root fracture represents an endodontic pathology with a poor prognosis and with potential negative consequences on the structures around the involved tooth.Clinical and radiological signs and symptoms may not be present in the early stages and later they can mimic other endodontic or periodontal pathologies.The diagnosis of this complication is even more difficult in teeth with endodontic treatment.It is paramount to identify this condition early to prevent bone loss and compromising the subsequent prosthetic treatment.
