Cracked Tooth Syndrome<\/h2>\n

Cracked Tooth Syndrome is something we see dailing in the dental office. The teeth in our mouth are brittle and have a tendancy with age to break. Another factor in the<\/p>\n

\"cracked<\/a>breaking of teeth is if they have big old fillings. The minute a tooth has a filling it has lost some integrity and begins to loose strength.\u00a0Cracked Tooth Syndrome happens when we have such a fracture. Often times that crack is not visible. The crack can either be microscopic in nature or in an area that is not visible to the eye.\u00a0Cracked Tooth Syndrome is usually diagnosed more by symptoms and less by actual visual inspection of the tooth.<\/p>\n

Cracked Tooth Syndrome And Root Canal<\/h2>\n

Patients often come in \u00a0needing a filling. When we remove an old filling, and look at the floor of the preparation, we can sometimes literally see a crack or craze line\u00a0run-<\/p>\n

\"cracked<\/a>ing along the floor of the tooth, like in the picture . Should that crack propagate further down the tooth, it will reach the actual nerve and blood vessels in the tooth and\u00a0Cracked Tooth Syndrome will end up causing the tooth to need a root canal. There are times that the tooth actually breaks along the line and sometimes that fracture is so deep under the gum line that there is no way to save the tooth.<\/p>\n

When Is A Tooth With\u00a0Cracked Tooth Syndrome Salvageable ?<\/h2>\n

The minute you begin to feel these symptoms \"Cracked<\/a>\u00a0of pain on biting or pain on releasing, you should see your dentist. Often times, If we can diagnose the tooth requiring treatment, a crown can solve the issue<\/a>. A crown acts like a band that holds that tooth together and prevents the crack from getting worse. A treatment like this can actually save the tooth and prevent\u00a0Cracked Tooth Syndrome from requiring you to have your tooth extracted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
