We did it all when it came to preventing cavities in our daughter's adorable baby teeth. Regardless of our efforts, she still had a bad case of the “sugar bugs” eating away and causing tooth decay. That all ended when we learned about tooth oil and ozone.
The hard, outside part of your tooth is the enamel. It is the most mineralized tissue in the human body, but that does not mean it has limitless strength. A blow to the face or biting down on something too hard—especially if the tooth is already compromised by decay—can cause a tooth to fracture, break, or chip. Chipped teeth are fairly common, and in most cases not serious. In fact, if the break doesn’t hurt, it might not constitute a dental emergency. You should still contact your dentist right away, but he or she might put off treatment for a couple of days. If the break extends beyond the enamel to the soft tissue within, it is a fracture. This is a more serious issue and is considered a dental emergency. Deeper fractures could cause infection, or even full tooth loss. You will likely experience extreme discomfort, and will know right away to contact your dentist. Steps to follow if you break a tooth There is no way to treat a chipped or factored tooth at home. But there are things you can do to help ease the pain and reduce your risk of infection. Before you see the dentist: Rinse your mouth with warm, salt water to prevent infection and help with the pain If there is bleeding, apply pressure with a clean gauze Use an icepack to help reduce swelling Use sugarless gum, toothpaste, or dental wax to cover the jagged pieces of your tooth If you can’t see the dentist right away, use temporary dental cement If needed, use over the counter pain medication to mitigate discomfort Consume soft foods and liquids so you do not cause more damage How the dentist repairs broken teeth? First the dentist will take an x-ray to determine the extent of damage and the best course of action. Treatment often depends on the type of break. Here is what the dentist will likely do for: Minor cracks. These rarely need treatment. The dentist might smooth the surface of the tooth to eliminate any rough spots. Chips. These are also minor breaks where only the surface of the tooth is damaged. If the chip is small, the dentist might polish the surface. For larger, more noticeable breaks, the dentist may recommend using bonding material or veneers to make your tooth feel and look better. A broken cusp. The cusp is the pointed part of the chewing surface on your tooth. If this breaks it does not usually affect the pulp. The dentist can use bonding material to restore the shape of your tooth, but more often he or she will use an onlay or full crown. A cracked tooth. This type of break goes from the crown to the nerve, and while the pieces of the tooth remain in place, the fissure will only spread with time and use. In these cases the dentist might use a filling, but often a full crown is the only way to save the tooth. A split tooth. In this case the tooth brakes into two separate parts, from crown to root. With molars, that have more than one root, the dentist can perform a root canal and remove roots that are compromised, and top the rest with a crown. If the root cannot be saved, the dentist will extract the entire tooth. For a full restoration you will need a bridge or a dental implant. A vertical root fracture. Often these breaks have minimal symptoms, and manifest when the gum or surrounding bone gets infected. Because the crack starts at the root of the tooth, most often the entire tooth is removed. A decay-induced break. In this case the tooth gets weakened from the inside out. If it breaks, your dentist will examine the tooth and the extent of decay. Treatment might be a filling, root canal therapy, or extraction if decay is extensive. If you have a broken tooth, get in for a dental examination as quickly as possible to avoid infection or further damage. Reacting quickly might even save your tooth.
It’s important to clarify that while a healthy diet and good oral hygiene can help prevent cavities and may aid in the remineralization of teeth in very early stages, once a cavity has formed, it cannot be completely “repaired” naturally at home. Cavities are permanent damage to the tooth enamel that typically require dental intervention to treat. The information provided here aims to offer guidance on how to support oral health and potentially slow the progression of early tooth decay, but it should not replace professional dental advice and treatment.

Can Tooth Enamel Be Restored? Can tooth enamel be restored naturally? Your teeth are living and growing parts of your body, even though like your height you won't grow much more after you're 21 years
Purpose of Review Current dental treatments are based on conservative approaches, using inorganic materials and appliances. This report explores and discusses the newest achievements in the field of “regenerative dentistry,” based on the concept of biological repair as an alternative to the current conservative approach. Recent Findings The review covers and critically analyzes three main approaches of tooth repair: the re-mineralization of the enamel, the biological repair of dentin, and whole tooth engineering. Summary The development of a concept of biological repair based on the role of the Wnt signaling pathway in reparative dentin formation offers a new translational approach into development of future clinical dental treatments. In the field of bio-tooth engineering, the current focus of the researchers remains the establishment of odontogenic cell-sources that would be viable and easily accessible for future bio-tooth engineering.
I chipped my tooth five years ago. Here's how I got it fixed.
Species - Carcharocles megalodon Size - 2.70" Location - Southeastern USA Age - Early Pliocene-Late Miocene - Appx 4-7 million years old Remarks - Colorful, sharply serrated, lateral 2.70" long fossil megalodon shark tooth found in the Southeastern USA. 100% authentic with no repair or restoration. Buyer will receive full geological data on all teeth. 99% of the teeth we sell are new to the market and have not been bought from other dealers or shopped around at shows. We acquire the teeth either by buying direct from divers who sell exclusively to our company or by diving ourselves (but we don't use that as a marketing gimmick.....does it really matter whether we found a particular tooth or someone else did if you like it and the price is fair?). So what you are seeing here has not been offered before and you will be either the 2nd or 3rd owner of a very cool and collectible piece of history. International customers are responsible for any customs duty charged by your country to import (if applicable, many countries have no duty or fairly high dollar requirements before one is charged). We are NOT responsible for nor do we have control of ANY of these charges and legally can not and will not alter the customs declaration. However our products are priced quite fairly and usually you will still pay less (often considerably less) for a tooth from us even after paying duty than from most other sellers so keep that in mind when purchasing.

A recent study was the first to establish a way to regrow tooth enamel. But what is tooth enamel and why is it so important?
It can be painful to chip or break a tooth, but many cracks and chips aren’t serious and may need little or no treatment. However, the best way to protect your teeth and overall health is to see a dentist to make sure.
