Cracked Teeth

These are superficial cracks on the tooth enamel, often harmless and cosmetic in nature.

This is a break in the raised points (cusp) of a tooth, typically occurring around a dental filling.

This is a more extensive crack extending from the chewing surface toward the root, often causing pain during chewing.

A split tooth is usually the result of an untreated cracked tooth. It can be identified by a crack with distinct segments.

This is a crack extending from the tooth root upward, often challenging to diagnose and treat.
