A fractured lower tooth combined with tooth misalignment can cause severe pain, difficulty biting, and ongoing damage to surrounding teeth and gums. In this real clinical case, the broken lower molar created bite interference, inflammation, and increased sensitivity during chewing. Without prompt treatment, the fracture may worsen, leading to infection, abscess formation, or tooth loss.
