For a cracked tooth, ceramic restorations are far better because white bonding cannot hold a split tooth together.

If a crack is only a tiny surface scratch in the outer enamel, composite bonding does a great job. The dentist seals the scratch with a dab of resin in twenty minutes.

Deep cracks need heavy protection. Chewing on a cracked molar flexes the split and hurts the nerve inside. White resin cannot glue a split tooth back together under pressure. A ceramic restoration wraps around the outside cusps, clamping the tooth so it cannot snap in half.

A quantity surveyor visiting from Manchester came into our surgery at 38 North Lane in Aldershot (GU12 4QG) after feeling sharp pain whenever he released his bite. We found a hairline crack running into his molar and fitted an all-ceramic onlay to clamp the tooth safe.
