Periodontal tissue repair after sealing of the gap in vertical root fracture.

The aim of this study was to determine whether sealing of fracture gap using adhesive resin through the root canal can prevent inflammation of periodontal tissue, and resealing the incompletely sealed fracture gap from outside can resolve such inflammation in experimentally created vertical root fractures. Vertical root fractures were created in incisor of beagles. In the experimental group, the fracture gap was sealed through the root canal with adhesive resin.
