Tooth Pain: Cracked Tooth

How to fix cracked tooth

Cracked teeth can arise from various factors like teeth grinding, eating habits, or misaligned chewing teeth. Saving a cracked tooth hinges on considerations such as the type, location, and extent of the fracture. Treatment may entail a root canal and/or a crown. Timely intervention is vital, as the continued use of the cracked tooth can exacerbate the fracture, potentially reaching the root under the bone. Nonetheless, once treated, most cracked teeth can function pain-free for many years.

The treatment and outcome for a cracked tooth depend on the type, location, and extent of the crack, often necessitating Cone Beam CT (3D) imaging for evaluation. If you suspect a cracked tooth, scheduling a consultation to assess its restorability and explore treatment options is advisable.
