Abstract

Abstract:

Cracked tooth indicates one or more hidden cracks that start from the crown and have a trend of apical extension. Clinicians often face three major challenges related to cracked tooth, which refer to diagnosis, treatment and prognosis. This article discusses the clinical and basic research progress of cracked tooth, in order to provide evidence for making clinical decisions and novel targets of further study.

Key words: Cracked tooth, Crack line, Diagnosis, Treatment, Prognosis
