Can rough edges of a broken teeth injure the tooth and surrounding soft tissues?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern. Your teeth can break either due to decay or trauma. Even though you do not have any symptoms, you need to get treated immediately to prevent an injury to your tongue or surrounding structures due to the sharp edges. I suggest you get a dental X-ray to decide on a further treatment plan.

I hope this helps.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

There is no need to worry. However, you must be careful that the sharp edge does not prick the surrounding area. I suggest you avoid very hot and very cold and sticky foods. Also, avoid chewing in that area. Keep the area clean, gargle with lukewarm salt water after every meal, and use a mouth wash.

I hope this helps.

Thank you.
