Abstract
Calcium silicate-based materials are hydrophilic materials with biocompatibility and bioactivity properties. Despite many advantages, they might present some problems related to discolouration, setting time, manipulation and solubility depending on the composition of the product and the type of clinical application. Calcium silicate-based materials can be evaluated under two types according to their intended use: calcium silicate-based cements (CSCs) and calcium silicate-based sealers (CSSs). CSCs can be used in many endodontic procedures including perforation repair, resorption repair, apical barriers, guided endodontic repair, vital pulp treatment, endodontic surgery, root fractures and root canal filling as a core obturation material. CSSs are available for use with gutta-percha to obturate root canals using cold and warm techniques, including the sealer-based obturation technique. The purpose of this review is to evaluate the available literature on CSCs and CSSs and to provide up-to-date information and recommendations for their clinical applications.

[PMID: 36802858 PMCID: PMC9944014 DOI: 10.1259/dmfr.20220345] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2022] [Revised: 01/31/2023] [Accepted: 01/31/2023] [Indexed: 02/23/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aims to evaluate the performance of ResNet models in the detection of in vitro and in vivo vertical root fractures (VRF) in Cone-beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) images. METHODS A CBCT image dataset consisting of 28 teeth (14 intact and 14 teeth with VRF, 1641 slices) from 14 patients, and another dataset containing 60 teeth (30 intact and 30 teeth with VRF, 3665 slices) from an in vitro model were used for the establishment of VRFconvolutional neural network (CNN) models. The most popular CNN architecture ResNet with different layers was fine-tuned for the detection of VRF. Sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, PPV (positive predictive value), NPV (negative predictive value), and AUC (the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve) of the VRF slices classified by the CNN in the test set were compared. Two oral and maxillofacial radiologists independently reviewed all the CBCT images of the test set, and intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) were calculated to assess the interobserver agreement for the oral maxillofacial radiologists. RESULTS The AUC of the models on the patient data were: 0.827(ResNet-18), 0.929(ResNet-50), and 0.882(ResNet-101). The AUC of the models on the mixed data get improved as:0.927(ResNet-18), 0.936(ResNet-50), and 0.893(ResNet-101). The maximum AUC were: 0.929 (0.908-0.950, 95% CI) and 0.936 (0.924-0.948, 95% CI) for the patient data and mixed data from ResNet-50, which is comparable to the AUC (0.937 and 0.950) for patient data and (0.915 and 0.935) for the mixed data obtained from the two oral and maxillofacial radiologists, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Deep-learning models showed high accuracy in the detection of VRF using CBCT images. The data obtained from the in vitro VRF model increases the data scale, which is beneficial to the training of deep-learning models.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vertical root fracture (VRF) is one of the most common reasons for tooth extraction, although various methods have been applied for saving teeth with VRF.
CASE SUMMARY This case report describes a woman who had a sinus tract on the labial gingiva of the left maxillary central incisor for past two months. Periodontal probing revealed an 8–10 mm deep, narrow, isolated pocket on the palatal side of the tooth. Clinical and radiographic examination confirmed a longitudinal root fracture. A new approach using a combination of resin and iRoot BP Plus through intentional replantation was used for the treatment of the tooth. At one-year follow-up, the tooth remained asymptomatic with normal periodontal probing depth, and radiographic images showed almost normal bone and periodontal structures around the root.
CONCLUSION This new approach may be developed as an effective method for saving teeth with VRF.

Abstract
A vertical root fracture (VRF) is a complex complication that usually leads to tooth extraction. The aim of this article is to review the prevalence, demography, distribution, diagnostic methods, etiology and predisposing factors, clinical features, radiographic characteristics and treatment strategies of VRFs in non-endodontically treated teeth (VRFNETT) and endodontically treated teeth (VRFETT). Search terms for each subject related to VRFNETT and VRFETT were entered into MEDLINE, PubMed and Google Scholar. Systematic reviews, retrospective cohort studies, demographic research, clinical studies, case reports and case series were reviewed. Most of the VRFs were found in patients older than 40 years old. Older populations were discovered in the non-endodontically treated VRF group when compared to the endodontically treated VRF group. Male patients were found at a greater prevalence than females in the non-endodontically treated VRF group. The initial occurrence of a VRF may accompany radiolucent lines within the root canal, unusual space between the canal wall and intracanal material, a widening of the PDL space along the periradicular surfaces, angular bony destruction, step-like bone defects, V-shaped diffuse bone defects, or root resorptions corresponding to the fracture line before the clear separation of the fractured fragment. The indicative clinical and radiographic signs of VRF included a coronally positioned sinus tract, deep-narrow periodontal defects, the displacement of a fractured fragment, periradicular radiolucent halos and the widening of the root canal space. Interestingly, VRFNETT are more often observed in the Chinese population. Some patients with multiple VRFs were observed, suggesting possible predisposing factors in genetics and tooth development. The management of a VRF usually involves a multidisciplinary approach. The common distribution and features of VRFNETT and VRFETT were elucidated to facilitate recognition and diagnosis. Besides extraction, variable therapeutic schemes, such as the repair of the VRF, root amputation and others reported in earlier literature, are available. A long-term prognosis study of the various therapeutic strategies is needed.

New Approach in the Management of Vertical Root Fracture with the Help of Biodentine and CBCT. Case Rep Dent 2020; 2020:2806324. [PMID: 33005457 PMCID: PMC7509562 DOI: 10.1155/2020/2806324] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2020] [Revised: 08/20/2020] [Accepted: 09/02/2020] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Vertical root fracture is a big challenge to dentists for its diagnosis and treatment. As the tooth presents poor prognosis, the most common treatment modality is extraction. One can save the tooth from extraction by the reconstruction of fracture fragments followed by intentional reimplantation. New treatment options have arrived for healing of the fracture site by hard tissue barrier formation with the help of bioceramic materials. Case Report. The present case report describes successful management of complete vertical root fracture of a maxillary left central incisor by trauma in a 35-year-old male with the help of Biodentine, a bonding agent, a fiber post, and dual-cure resin cement without tooth extraction, followed by all ceramic crowns. Up to two years of follow-up, there is no problem in the tooth, and radiographically, there is no radiolucency along the fracture line. Periodontal status and probing depth were within a normal physiological limit. Conclusion Functional and aesthetic outcomes are achieved by combined therapy in the present case report.

Abstract
Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) is a dental material used extensively for vital pulp therapies (VPT), protecting scaffolds during regenerative endodontic procedures, apical barriers in teeth with necrotic pulps and open apices, perforation repairs as well as root canal filling and root-end filling during surgical endodontics. A number of bioactive endodontic cements (BECs) have recently been introduced to the market. Most of these materials have calcium and silicate in their compositions; however, bioactivity is a common property of these cements. These materials include the following: BioAggregate, Biodentine, BioRoot RCS, calcium-enriched mixture cement, Endo-CPM, Endocem, EndoSequence, EndoBinder, EndoSeal MTA, iRoot, MicroMega MTA, MTA Bio, MTA Fillapex, MTA Plus, Neo MTA Plus, Ortho MTA, Quick-Set, Retro MTA, Tech Biosealer, and TheraCal LC. It has been claimed that these materials have properties similar to those of MTA but without the drawbacks. In Part I of this review, the available information on the chemical composition of the materials listed above was reviewed and their applications for VPT was discussed. In this article, the clinical applications of MTA and other BECs will be reviewed for apexification, regenerative endodontics, perforation repair, root canal filling, root-end filling, restorative procedures, periodontal defects and treatment of vertical and horizontal root fractures. In addition, the literature regarding the possible drawbacks of these materials following their clinical applications is reviewed. These drawbacks include their discolouration potential, systemic effects and retreatability following use as a root filling material. Based on selected keywords, all publications were searched regarding the use of MTA as well as BECs for the relevant clinical applications. Numerous publications were found regarding the use of BECs for various endodontic applications. The majority of these investigations compared BECs with MTA. Despite promising results for some materials, the number of publications using BECs for various clinical applications was limited. Furthermore, most studies had several methodological shortcomings and low levels of evidence.

Abstract
Detection of iatrogenic root perforation during post-space preparation especially in labiolingual plane can be challenging due to the two-dimensional nature of conventional radiography; this can be even more challenging if the cemented post is radiolucent. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans were shown to be a valuable diagnostic aid in diagnosis of such cases. However, in this case, the application of CBCT did not help in diagnosis of a labial fiber post perforation in a maxillary central incisor which was finally detected through exploratory surgery.

Abstract
Although it is challenging, the early diagnosis of a vertical root fracture (VRF) is crucial in order to ensure tooth preservation. The purpose of this clinical case report was to describe reparative surgery performed to treat a tooth affected by an incomplete VRF. A 26 year old male patient was suspected to have a VRF in a maxillary left central incisor, and an exploratory flap was performed in order to confirm the diagnosis. After detecting the fracture, the lesion was surgically treated, the fracture and the infected root-end were removed, and a platelet-rich plasma membrane was used to cover the defect in order to prevent bacterial migration. A 24 month clinical and radiological follow-up examination showed that the tooth was asymptomatic and that the healing process was in progress. The surgical approach described here may be considered an effective treatment for a combined endodontic-periodontal lesion originating from an incomplete VRF and a recurrent periapical lesion.

Abstract
Vertical root fractures associated with endodontically treated teeth and less commonly in vital teeth represent one of the most difficult clinical problems to diagnose and treat. In as much as there are no specific symptoms, diagnosis can be difficult. Clinical detection of this condition by endodontists is becoming more frequent, where as it is rather underestimated by the general practitioners. Since, vertical root fractures almost exclusively involve endodontically treated teeth; it often becomes difficult to differentiate a tooth with this condition from an endodontically failed one or one with concomitant periodontal involvement. Also, a tooth diagnosed for vertical root fracture is usually extracted, though attempts to reunite fractured root have been done in various studies with varying success rates. Early detection of a fractured root and extraction of the tooth maintain the integrity of alveolar bone for placement of an implant. Cone beam computed tomography has been shown to be very accurate in this regard. This article focuses on the diagnostic and treatment strategies, and discusses about predisposing factors which can be useful in the prevention of vertical root fractures.

Abstract
Instead of extraction this case report presents an alternative treatment option for a maxillary incisor with a vertical root fracture (VRF) causing pain in a 78-year-old patient. After retreatment of the existing root canal filling the tooth was stabilized with a dentine adhesive and a composite restoration. Then the tooth was extracted, the VRF gap enlarged with a small diamond bur and the existing retrograde root canal filling removed. The enlarged fracture line and the retrograde preparation were filled with a calcium-silicate-cement (Biodentine). Afterwards the tooth was replanted and a titanium trauma splint was applied for 12d. A 24 months clinical and radiological follow-up showed an asymptomatic tooth, reduction of the periodontal probing depths from 7 mm prior to treatment to 3 mm and gingival reattachment in the area of the fracture with no sign of ankylosis. Hence, the treatment of VRF with Biodentine seems to be a possible and promising option.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objectives of this study were to propose a classification for the bone defects resulting after extraction of a vertically fractured tooth and to review the existing literature about the treatment of such kind of defects by means of dental implants in combination with regenerative procedures. MATERIALS AND METHODS An electronic search was performed on biomedical databases using a combination of appropriated search terms combined through the use of Boolean operators. All articles concerning the treatment of peri-implant bone dehiscences and fenestrations through guided bone regeneration (GBR) with at least 6 months follow-up were eligible. Outcomes data extracted from the selected articles were summarized using descriptive tables. A classification of the bone defects associated with vertical root fracture (VRF) was also proposed. RESULTS A total of 33 articles were included in the review. Twenty-three articles (814 implants) were about bone dehiscence treatment, ten articles presented the treatment of fenestrations, and ten (429 implants) adopted vertical bone augmentation. The percentage of bone filling was variable among different procedures and defect classification. The use of resorbable membrane was associated with better outcomes than the use of non-resorbable ones. CONCLUSIONS Guided bone regeneration for the management of bone defects in the presence of a VRF of the extracted tooth is a viable treatment option. The assessment of bone defect geometry prior to a tooth extraction could be clinically relevant for evaluating the feasibility and the success of immediate implant placement as well as the need of GBR.
