A tooth is very strong, but it can break or fracture if it is weak or hit with a lot of force. When a tooth fractures or breaks, it causes a lot of pain and swelling for several days. Therefore, the broken tooth must be repaired or replaced.
Whether a tooth will be repaired or replaced, depends on the damage to the tooth.
If the tooth is partially broken or fractured then it is repaired with a root canal treatment and a tooth crown. It extends the life of the broken tooth by 5-10 years. If the tooth is completely broken from the base near the gums and its roots are damaged, then the tooth is extracted and replaced with a dental implant. A dental implant lasts for over 20 years.
