It commonly uses visual inspection plus tools such as magnification, special lighting, bite tests, and dental imaging. It helps explain symptoms like sharp pain on biting or temperature sensitivity when a crack is present but not obvious. It is used in routine checkups, emergency visits, and before repairing or replacing fillings and crowns."}
