Cracked Teeth Are Common and Can Be Treated

As people live longer and enjoy more active lifestyles, cracked teeth are becoming more and more common. Your endodontist will explain your unique situation to you. There are many different types of cracked teeth, and the treatment depends on the type, location, and severity of the crack.

What is a Cracked Tooth, and Why Does It Hurt?

When you experience a cracked tooth, the pulp inside the tooth can easily become irritated. Severe cracks can lead to an infection in the pulp tissue, which can spread to the surrounding bone and gum tissue. You must seek treatment immediately if you have a cracked tooth to increase the chance of saving your natural tooth.
