Can a tooth with a vertical fracture be saved?

A tooth with a vertical fracture may sometimes be saved, depending on the extent and location of the fracture. If the fracture does not extend below the gum line and the tooth's pulp is not affected, treatment options like a crown or root canal may be viable. However, if the fracture compromises the tooth's stability or involves the root, extraction may be necessary. Consulting a dentist is essential for an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan.
