Cracks in teeth are a common dental problem that can cause pain, sensitivity, and difficulty while chewing if left untreated. Tooth cracks may occur due to biting hard food, teeth grinding, trauma, or weakened enamel. Different types of cracks such as craze lines, oblique subgingival cracks, vertical furcation cracks, oblique root cracks, and vertical apical root cracks can affect both the crown and root of the tooth. Early diagnosis is important to prevent infection, nerve damage, or tooth loss. At Perfect Smile Dental Care & Orthodontic Center, advanced dental evaluation and treatment options help protect damaged teeth and restore oral health. If you notice tooth sensitivity or pain while chewing, consult a dentist promptly for proper care and a healthier smile.
