    Dr. De Vizio of Colgate answered:
    Broken and cracked teeth are among the most common tooth injures, especially among children. One quarter of 12-year-old kids have injured their permanent teeth, according to research.

    In adults, broken teeth are most common in people who suffer injuries while playing sports or during fights, or who like to eat a lot of very hard foods.
