Sometimes a tooth’s own worst enemy…is its own opposing tooth 🦷 After years of occlusal trauma- what most people think of as just “wear and tear”- this patient’s tooth cracked off below the gum line. No pain.
We try to prevent this kind of trauma with orthodontic movement to obtain a more harmonious, functional bite…but if prevention isn’t prioritized and the unthinkable happens…there are always solutions 😷
