Tooth fractures are caused by trauma. The use of a mouth guard while playing contact sports goes a long way in preventing many traumatic dental injuries. If a tooth fracture occurs, contact Pediatric Dentistry immediately, regardless of whether the fracture occurred on a primary or permanent tooth. Restoring the broken tooth will help maintain the life of the tooth, reduce discomfort, and allow the natural function and contour of the tooth to be restored.
