Treatment for a cracked tooth depends on how deep the crack goes and how much viable tooth structure is left. Whenever possible, we try to save the natural tooth with conservative treatment. It is generally more comfortable, conservative, and predictable to treat a crack early than to wait until the symptoms get worse.
Waking up with headaches can quickly affect the rest of your day. For some people, it can feel like pressure behind the eyes; others notice jaw soreness, neck tension, or tight facial muscles when they first get out of bed.

We hear it often. A patient sits down and tells us they’ve already tried whitening strips, trays, or an in-office treatment, and the results were underwhelming, didn’t last, or left their teeth so sensitive they swore they’d never do it again.

When it comes to children’s dental health, prevention can make all the difference. Even with good brushing habits, it can be difficult for kids to keep every surface of their teeth completely clean. Molars, especially, have deep grooves where food and bacteria can hide.

Have you ever stepped off a ride and felt the world spin longer than expected? We call that disorientation vertigo. Vertigo and dizziness can disrupt the sense of balance that many people rely on every day. These symptoms are often associated with the inner ear’s interaction with the jaw and neck. At Brenner Dental Care, the team explores these connections using TruDenta technology to help patients find relief through thoughtful, non-invasive care.
