Abstract
The theory presented appears to be consistent with previous reports on stress development as a consequence of dehydration of dentin and finite element analysis on root fractures. It may be concluded that dehydration of dentin induces cracks at the walls of a root canal which subsequently grow as a result of cyclic loading or traumatic overload.
