Cracked Teeth & Fillings

Although teeth are very strong – occasionally they can chip, break or snap.

Cavities that have weakened the tooth can cause chipping or fractures but more frequently it is a result of trauma, biting something hard or a blow to the face.

If the nerve inside the tooth is exposed to air, saliva, or hot or cold foods or drinks, it can be extremely uncomfortable and you should see a dentist immediately.
