i woke up in the middle of tonight to a really bad tooth ache.
its my bottom front tooth.
it's kind of cracked, not that deep but moderately.
my other teeth have those cracked strips on them too but not even close to as deep as this one is. and those ones don't hurt.
i bite my nails on that tooth all the time which is probably the cause, but i cant help it bc its been a habit for about 5 years.
every time i press down on that tooth or touch it i get sharp pains.

whats the problem?? and what will my dentist do about it??

Probably pull it-sounds beyond a root canal.

if there is not much damage done to the tooth i think the dentist will try to treat it by scratching the edged to make ti smooth and if thr roots are also effected he might give u a root canal ,its better to go to the dentist and ask as according to me tooth pain is the worst pain a person can have ,why prolong it

You have exposed the root which is very painful. Your dentist will probably put a crown on it. I would really try to stop the nail biting. There are nasty tasting polishes that you can use to help you accomplish it. You just have to put it on.

See a dentist. I'm not sure what he'll do.
For the nail biting, buy Control-It. It's a natural cream applied to the fingertips. Will taste yucky when you want to bite your nails and hopefully help you get rid of the bad habit. I used it for my son and it helped.

likely pull it or do a root canal and put on a crown to the tune of about 2500 dollars
