A broken tooth replacement is needed when Americans have chipped or cracked teeth which is caused by chewing on foods that are harder than what our teeth are designed for. Our teeth were not made to handle chewing hard candies, jawbreakers, or even nuts at times. There are times when some foods we eat contain particles of bone or nuts; small particles that can affect our teeth in the worst ways. Every time you eat something for the first time, you should carefully pick it apart, especially if it's a food that contains hard substances.
It's much safer, and definitely less expensive, to take a few minutes making sure your food won't damage your teeth than to eat whatever and hope you won't need a broken tooth replacement in the future. If you do happen to find yourself in need of a broken tooth replacement or your teeth are cracked and chipped, try some of the affordable tips in the following paragraph.
Broken Tooth Replacement Steps
If one (or many) of your teeth are broken, you're probably thinking the best option would be to head down to your dentist to have him/her take a look at it. If you're interested in spending a few hundred dollars, be my guest. But if you're looking to save money and learn how to fix this problem yourself, here are a few ways you can do that:
1. The first thing you're going to want to try is to use a file to file down your tooth. You'll take the file and use it to soften and smooth the edge of the damaged tooth. This is a simple and quick fix and you won't need a dentist to give you a broken tooth replacement. If by chance, the crack or chip is larger and cannot be filed down, other steps are needed to correct this problem.
2. Filling your teeth with some type of super glue/krazy glue (a resin) might be what you're looking for in a broken tooth replacement. You're not actually replacing the tooth but merely fixing the problem without surgery. What you're going to do is fill the tooth with your glue but make sure you don't touch the glue-like substance to any of your other teeth (as you will need to figure out a way to remove glue on teeth). This process will only work if your crack has not gone down to your tooth's root. If it has you will need to follow another step, possibly below.
3.In many cases when a person breaks a tooth, they are in need of a crown. A crown is simply a metal cap that is cemented to the top of your existing tooth. Many people get crowns that are silver in color but the hot fad these days is to get a crown that appears as a normal tooth. You will need to ask your dentist about this process as it is not recommended to do this at home (even if you think you know what you're doing). The dentist will get rid of the damaged part of the tooth and then add the crown to the remaining part. This will cost a few hundred dollars mainly because the dentist will have to use a numbing liquid on your gums (so you don't feel the drilling down of your tooth).
4. If you're still not able to fix your broken tooth or broken teeth and need a replacement, you might as well go to your family dental practitioner to have your broken tooth replaced with a new false tooth. This happens more often than not, mainly because it is rare that a tooth will be okay with just filling it with some type of resin or using a file to smooth it out. But sometimes this is the case. We always recommend you consult a dentist before performing any procedures at home.
Stop Broken Tooth Replacement Steps in the Future
Some of the more common reasons people crack or break their teeth is because they're not being careful with what they eat. You don't want to be like them, do you? It is a safe practice to eat lots of calcium to help with strengthening your teeth. We recommend eating more leafy green vegetables such as spinach and kale. Kale has over 1000% of your daily calcium needs and helps to make your teeth stronger than milk does! You should always brush and floss your teeth daily. This will help keep your teeth and gums clean and rid of any left over food.
A broken tooth replacement should only be done if you're in a lot of pain and you've exhausted all of your options.
Be careful when eating foods that are new to you.
