Internal root resorption may occur when the tooth is exposed to a traumatic injury. It may also start due to bacterial invasion or exposure to chemicals. This type of root resorption repair will result in a hollowing of the tooth, which can weaken the tooth and leave it vulnerable to excessive damage.

The pulp is the innermost layer of your tooth. It sits under the enamel and dentin in a space called the pulp chamber and extends down into the root canals. It contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue that help your tooth grow and stay healthy. Once the tooth fully develops, the pulp helps you sense heat, cold, and pain.

Prevention is generally the best approach to take when it comes to cracked teeth. Ensure that you wear a mouth guard whenever you participate in sports. You should also refrain from using your teeth to open things, as well as avoid biting down on hard objects. If you have issues with clenching or grinding your teeth, you should consult your dentist to obtain an appropriate mouth guard.
