Visitor asks:

Dear Sir/Madam,
I would like to ask what, if any, difference there is between the signs of inflammation at the tooth root and the signs of a root crack or root fracture. There is already a post in the tooth.
Thank you.

Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:

Dear Sir/Madam!

In the case of a root crack, inflammation also develops as a consequence, and this causes clinical symptoms. It follows that from subjective symptoms alone, without additional diagnostic procedures (X-ray, clinical assessment of fragment mobility, vitality testing...), we cannot draw a definitive conclusion about the true cause.

Have a nice day!
