If you have a cracked tooth, your dentist will assess the severity of the damage and recommend the best treatment to restore and protect your tooth. For minor cracks, a white filling can repair the damage and prevent further issues. If the crack is more significant, a porcelain inlay/onlay or a dental crown may be needed to strengthen the tooth and restore its function.
However, if the crack has reached the nerve, a root canal treatment (RCT) may be necessary to remove the damaged tissue and prevent infection. Early treatment is key to saving your tooth, so if you think you have a cracked tooth, contact your dentist as soon as possible.
