Broken Teeth
A broken tooth is sharp, may cut your tongue and cause an ulcer to form, and make eating a very dreadful experience.
The worst part is that your tongue will constantly find the sharp bit and play with it further worsening the ulcer and leading to infections to form.
Leaving a broken tooth can lead to further tooth damage, infections and ulcers. At its worst, it may even require the tooth to be removed.
This is not always the case. Early intervention means the tooth may be saved with treatments such as fillings and caps (also known as crowns)
