When you crack, chip, or break a tooth, it’s time to call your dentist. Normally, you have the natural protection of your enamel to block bacteria from making their way inside the tooth, but when you lose it due to injury or decay, it puts you at risk. And when bacteria find themselves in the nerve within that tooth, it can lead to some serious pain that requires a root canal treatment to correct. The simple fact of the matter is that your broken tooth is unlikely to resolve itself on its own.
So, when you’re ready to renew your smile, talk to Sunny Smiles about your next steps. We understand the importance of addressing cracked, chipped, or broken teeth early, and we are here for you if you have recently experienced damage.
