| When a tooth is cracked, a filling
may not seal the crack. A crown
may have to be placed over the tooth to hold it and
the crack together. If the crack is not restored,
the tooth will become sensitive
to chewing pressure, or will eventually break. It
is important to restore a cracked tooth before
it breaks, because in some cases a broken
tooth cannot be filled or crowned and must be
extracted. |
