Cracked tooth syndrome (CTS) is a condition when a crack occurs in your tooth or you have a fractured tooth. Sometimes the damage is minor and harmless and sometimes it causes your teeth to crack or split. Age, tooth grinding, trauma, and other reasons can lead to a broken or cracked tooth. You may not notice any signs of a cracked tooth. You may also experience discomfort and sensitivity. Depending on the location and severity of the crack, your dentist has many treatment options.

Teeth Fracture occurs due to a variety of factors, including pressure from teeth grinding fillings so large that they weaken the integrity of the tooth, chewing or biting hard foods, such as ice, nuts, or hard candy, or getting injured in a car accident, sporting injury, fall, or even abrupt changes in temperature in the mouth.
