Abstract
When root-fractured teeth are treated adequately with repositioning, stabilization, and occlusal adjustment the prognosis for healing is favorable. The common sequelae of root canal obliteration and transitory resorption are usually of little clinical concern. The sequelae of pulpal necrosis usually can be treated successfully by endodontic therapy or surgery. Even with the loss of the fractured crown the root often can be restored with the assistance of the modern techniques of extrusion or periodontal surgery. The prognosis for tooth survival following a horizontal root fracture can be summarized as quite good.
