Why do my teeth keep cracking?+
There may be several reasons, including heavily restored teeth, concentrated bite forces or a lack of support from missing teeth. An examination and bite analysis can help clarify which, if any, apply to you.
Can you just fix the tooth that broke this week?+
Addressing the immediate problem normally comes first, and it does not commit you to anything further. You can then decide whether a wider look at the other teeth would be useful.
Will new crowns stop this from happening?+
Crowns can rebuild weakened teeth, but nothing makes a tooth unbreakable. A plan also looks at the forces involved, and ongoing care helps protect what has been restored.
Do I grind my teeth without knowing it?+
You may not be able to tell by yourself. Wear patterns and how your jaws meet can offer clues, so ask the dentist what your records suggest.
What should I do if a tooth breaks before my appointment?+
Phone (204) 338-3003 and describe what happened, instead of using the appointment form, particularly if you have pain or swelling.
From Jefferson, how do I set up an assessment?+
