When
a tooth is cracked, a filling will not seal the
crack. A crown has to be placed over the tooth
to hold it and the crack together. If a crown is not placed on the tooth,
the tooth will become sensitive to chewing
pressure, or will eventually break. It is important to crown a cracked tooth
before it breaks, because in some cases a broken
tooth cannot be crowned and must be extracted.
