About the disease & condition

Broken dental restorations refer to damage or failure of existing fillings, crowns, or bridges. This can occur due to daily wear and tear, trauma, tooth decay beneath the restoration, or excessive biting forces. When restorations break or loosen, they expose the tooth to sensitivity, infection, and further damage. Early evaluation and timely repair help preserve the natural tooth and restore normal function.

Known symptoms

Pain or sensitivity in the treated tooth.
Visible cracks, chips, or missing fillings or crowns.
Discomfort or difficulty while chewing.
Food getting trapped around the damaged restoration.

Known causes

Chewing hard or sticky foods.
Tooth grinding or clenching (bruxism).
Accidental injury or trauma to the mouth.
Old, worn-out, or poor-quality restorations.

Care

Comprehensive dental examination.
Dental X-rays to assess the underlying tooth structure.
Evaluation of restoration stability and fit.
Repair or replacement of damaged fillings, crowns, or bridges.
Preventive measures such as night guards for bruxism and regular dental check-ups.
