    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Dentists may inadvertently cause vertical tooth fractures through misdiagnosis or specific dental procedures. This paper introduces the term "odontiatrogenic tooth fracture" to describe these dentist-induced fractures.

    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Dental Diagnostics
    • Dental Procedures

    Background:

    • Increasing awareness of vertical tooth fractures (incomplete and complete).
    • Insufficient attention to the dentist's role in fracture occurrence.
    • Need to identify diagnostic and procedural contributions to tooth fractures.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight areas where dentists may misdiagnose fractured teeth.
    • To identify dental procedures that contribute to tooth structure fractures.
    • To propose the term 'odontiatrogenic tooth fracture'.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of clinical scenarios and dental procedures.
    • Analysis of diagnostic challenges in identifying vertical tooth fractures.
    • Literature review on iatrogenic dental complications.

    Main Results:

    • Identified key diagnostic pitfalls leading to missed or incorrect fracture diagnoses.
    • Highlighted specific dental treatments and techniques that increase fracture risk.
    • Established the concept of odontiatrogenic tooth fractures.

    Conclusions:

    • Dentists can contribute to vertical tooth fractures through diagnostic errors and procedural actions.
    • The term 'odontiatrogenic tooth fracture' defines fractures caused by dental interventions.
    • Increased practitioner awareness is crucial to prevent these iatrogenic fractures.
