Root Fractures Riverton
Root fractures (both vertical and horizontal) can occur from traumatic injuries but are most often a result of an endodontic procedure. Root fractures are difficult to diagnose without specialized technology in an endodontists office and early detection is key. A general dentist will often overlook a root fracture and simply pull the tooth without attempting to save it, assuming it is a failed endodontic procedure. The chances of successfully saving a root fractured tooth depends on where the fracture occurs. The closer to the gum, the less chance of success. If the fracture is closer to the tip, the chance for success increases.
Vertical Root Fracture
A vertical root fracture is one of the most difficult dental injuries to diagnose and treat. As most of these fractures occur on endodontically treated teeth, general practitioners and dentists often assume the endodontic procedure has failed and prematurely pull teeth that may otherwise be saved.
Endodontists have the highest success in the clinical detection of vertical root fractures and treatment in Riverton.

Horizontal Root Fracture
A horizontal root fracture is less common and the healing success largely depends on where the fracture is located. The closer a fracture is to the tip of the root, the greater the chance of success is. Stabilization and medication may be required to begin the healing process followed by the eventual root canal to repair damaged pulp.
