Our teeth are strong, but they can chip, crack or break with the many stresses and strains they endure.
Common causes of these breaks can include:
Broken teeth don’t necessarily cause immediate pain. If the break has spread to the nerve, you might experience discomfort when chewing or sensitivity to hot and cold.
Whether you are in pain or not, tooth breakage should be investigated by your Wodonga & Albury dentist immediately to check the tooth’s health and stability and provide the necessary treatment to prevent further deterioration or problems.
Anyone who thinks they have a broken tooth should make an appointment with a dentist as early as possible. It is important to do so when there are pain and discomfort.

The longer a broken tooth goes untreated, the more difficult it may be for a dentist to save the tooth. Complications may also occur, such as infection.
If you have a broken tooth, contact your Wodonga & Albury dentist immediately to treat the problem and prevent damage or infection.
