Cracked teeth may cause intermittent pain, especially when chewing or biting, and sensitivity when exposed to extreme temperatures. Sharp pain is common, while swelling may appear when an infection has developed.
How We Diagnose Cracked teeth
Diagnosis begins with a detailed review of symptoms and possible causes. The dentist will conduct a physical examination to check for inflammation and signs of tooth cracks.

What to Expect
Patients requiring root canal treatment in Jaipur can expect a thorough diagnosis and a personalised treatment plan. After consultation with a dentist, dental X-rays and a cone beam computed tomography scan are performed. These scans assess the extent of cracks and detect any bone loss or infection.
If the crack extends to the pulp, causing inflammation and infections, referrals are made to a root canal specialist (endodontist) for treatment. Local anaesthesia is used to numb the pain, and the pulp is accessed via a small opening. The infected pulp and nerve tissue are removed, and the area inside the tooth is disinfected and cleaned. A filling is used to seal the space and prevent further infection. Recovery may take a couple of days to a week.
After treatment, patients are advised to avoid hard foods, smoking and drinking hot liquids until a crown is placed. A permanent crown is placed over the tooth to protect it from further damage and restore its function. They are guided to maintain good oral hygiene, including brushing twice a day with a soft-bristle toothbrush. Following painless root canal treatment in Jaipur, regular follow-up appointments are scheduled to track the healing process.
