Cracked tooth syndrome is the clinical term used to describe a tooth that has been cracked but not broken off. The damage can be so minimal that it won’t show up on an x-ray image which is why it is so hard to diagnose. One of the symptoms commonly associated with a cracked tooth is increased sensitivity when biting down or when the tooth is exposed to hot or cold sensations. Cracked tooth syndrome will more often involve the rear molars. Visit our Elite Smiles of Louisville website, https://www.elitesmileslou.com today to learn more about restorative dental care.
