Research Notes on Broken Teeth


Each tooth has three layers: enamel, the hard outer coating; dentin, the main part of the tooth; and pulp, the fleshy nerve center. Many people who "chip" their teeth simply knock out a chunk of enamel. If enough enamel breaks off, though, the dentin can be exposed. The tooth still shouldn't hurt too much, but it may be very sensitive to cold. The worst breaks go all the way to the pulp. This causes extreme pain as well as bleeding from the tooth.
