What to do if a tooth breaks?

Crack in the tooth:

A tooth crack is statistically less common, but it actually means a tooth filling defect. For example, tooth-colored plastic fillings are used in the front area of ​​the dentition. Imagine if you had unsightly amalgam fillings in the front of your dentition, that would most likely not be very aesthetic. A crack in the tooth does not occur that often, actually only in a few cases if the tooth concerned has been treated for a root canal.

This makes the tooth somewhat more fragile and porous. You probably know the classic cherry cake, which unfortunately still had the hard cherry stone. It is hard to believe how many tooth accidents result from food, mostly from food that is too hard. And if you bite or chew on such a hard object by chance, a tooth defect can occur. Teeth also become more susceptible if you frequently consume particularly cold and warm drinks. In many cases, the teeth are particularly sensitive to cold and it can happen that the tooth becomes brittle more quickly due to the regular supply of cold and heat.
