Cracked teeth are a result of our stressful lives. Habits such a clenching, grinding, and chewing on hard objects such as ice, nuts and hard candy can crack our teeth. When the outer hard portion of the tooth is cracked there may be a variety of symptoms. They include pain to chewing, exposure to temperature extremes and in many cases a pain that comes and goes. All dentists are trained in diagnosing cracked teeth however because of the difficulty an endodontist with additional years of training and experience can be valuable.
