FAQ:  Tooth Trauma



  • Physical trauma: I got a knock on a front tooth, and there's a sliver of a crack that I can see - and it's a bit tender. Do these things ever heal? Will I definitely have to get some sort of work done? What are my options? ... Visitor from WA     (answer)

  • Teeth Grinding Causes Trauma: I have two cracked molars from grinding my teeth too hard when I forgot to wear my night guard! Major bummer!!! Anyway, I am now having some low grade pain with both teeth. This is mild enough to be kept under control with over the counter Ibuprofen. However, we are about to go on vacation and I can't afford to get the crowns on these two teeth for at least another month. Even with my insurance it will be expensive and I want to take my kids on vacation. So, my question is, what am I risking by waiting? What would be the worse case scenario if I wait another month to get these fixed? I've known about this problem for a month and a half. The pain started about two weeks ago.     (answer)

  • Spoon traumatizes top front tooth: 4 months ago while rushing to eat my breakfast cereal so to get to work I hit my front top tooth with the side of a tablespoon pretty hard. Since then I have a daily mild pain in that tooth. Went to my dentist who shined a light from behind the tooth and did an x-ray and told me he did not see any fracture and that the nerve looked fine and told me he would hate to do a root canal after seeing nothing. That was that and I live in constant pain and don't know what more to do. ... Visitor from PA     (answer)
