Objective. To explore the clinical effect of root canal therapy combined with full crown restoration in patients with cracked teeth and chronic pulpitis. Methods. From May 2018 to June 2020, 87 patients with cracked teeth and chronic pulpitis in our hospital were selected; the patients were randomly divided into the control group and the research group by random number method. The control group only used root canal therapy; the research group used root canal therapy combined with full crown restoration. The therapeutic effect, levels of inflammatory factors, chewing function, periodontal index, complications, and quality of life were compared between the two groups. Results. The total effective rate of the research group (97.78%) was better than the total effective rate of the control group (85.71%) ( P < 0.05 ). Compared with before treatment, the serum levels of interleukin-1β (IL-1β), IL-6, and C-reactive protein (CRP) of the two groups of patients decreased after treatment. After treatment, compared with the control group, the serum levels of IL-1β, IL-6, and CRP in the research group decreased ( P < 0.05 ). Compared with before treatment, the bite force of teeth and chewing efficiency of the two groups of patients increased after treatment. After treatment, compared with the control group, the bite force of teeth and chewing efficiency of the research group increased ( P < 0.05 ). Compared with before treatment, the plaque index (PLI), probing depth (PD), gingival sulcus bleeding index (BI), and gingival index (GI) of the two groups of patients decreased after treatment. After treatment, compared with the control group, the PLI, PD, BI, and GI of the research group decreased ( P < 0.05 ). The total incidence of complications in the research group was (11.11%), and the total incidence of complications in the control group was (16.67%); there was no significant difference between the two groups ( P > 0.05 ). After treatment, compared with the control group, the quality of life scores of the patients in the research group were reduced ( P < 0.05 ). Conclusion. Root canal therapy and full crown restoration have a definite curative effect in patients with cracked teeth and chronic pulpitis, which can improve the inflammatory response, restore chewing function, maintain periodontal health, improve the quality of life, and do not increase the incidence of complications, so it has good application value.

For patients who have small-angle intermittent exotropia, when the more frequently deviating eye cannot be definitely determined before unilateral surgery, the sighting test can help identify the dominant eye.
