Teeth Loose and Fractured

In case of a brief, sharp pain, both chewing and eating something cold, there may be an incomplete fracture of a tooth (green stick fracture). The dentist can correct the problem with a filling (restoration), provided in the case of an incomplete fracture without loosening of the tooth.
The upper teeth, particularly the forwards if they are prominent, are more prone to injuries and fractures. If after injury the tooth does not respond to stimulus from the air, it is likely that the damage affected only the hard outer surface (enamel). This does not require immediate treatment if it is a small crack.
Fractures of the middle layer of the tooth (dentin) are usually painful when exposed to air and food, which is why people with such fractures request immediate assistance. If the fracture affects the innermost part of the tooth (pulp), is often a red spot and some blood in the fracture. It may be necessary to address the root to remove the remaining pulp before they die and cause severe pain.
If the patient is under 12 years, the root treatment may be delayed until the complete formation of the roots of affected teeth.
Call your dentist if a wound or bruise a tooth loosens its socket, or if you bleed too much gum tissue.
