Ok...this question may seem weird, but since dentists took off my braces, one of my front tooth is kind of damaged, some part of the tooth broke and it keeps breaking more I think. My tooth seems very weak and it hurts a little sometimes. I talked to my dentist about it, but he won't do anything about it! I'm so scared that I might lose my tooth, because it feels like it. What should I do >.< Additional Details and I'm sorry about the bad english, but please help ; ;
Go to another dentist, and explain your problem. Plus, just because you go to another dentist doesn't mean you have to leave your regular one. You can just get a second opinion which is completely okay, especially in your situation.

I would go to another dentist for a second opinion and I wouldn't waste any time doing it either. Your tooth might be damaged put the nerves should still be fine. Go and get that tooth looked at right away. You can be fixed up like new. Good luck

what you have is called hypocalcification a common side effect of braces.
Normally this is easy to treat depending on severity
there s now a recalcification treatment available ask your dentist
a)recaldent b) professional recalcification gel applied to teeth which is formulated from a milk protein

Go back to your orthodontist and ask him what is going on. If this is caused by wearing braces (which it should not be), hopefully he can assist you.
If you didn't properly care for your teeth while wearing your braces (which is VERY VERY important and must be done at LEAST twice daily, including flossing), then there's nothing the orthodontist can do but you can get a cap on that tooth to help it stay looking good and not break any further.
Wearing braces does not harm your teeth if you care for them properly while you have them on and avoid eating the foods they tell you not to such as gum, caramel, nuts, etc.

Get a second opinion!

It sounds as though your enamel has weakened. This is common in people who've had braces. Talk to your dentist about fluoride rinses and other treatments to strengthen your enamel. If your current dentist can't help you find another one.

You might consider seeing another dentist. Soon. Infection and decay can set into a damaged tooth. What did he tell you was wrong with it? What was his reason for doing nothing? You might give him a call, tell him you did not understand what was the matter, please explain again. Then check it out. If he is annoyed by your question, get another dentist. Studies show we hear/retain about 60% of what the doctor tells us in the office! Hey, we're scared, worried about the money it is costing, afraid of pain, it's a wonder we hear that much! And if he doesn't know or understand that, well, he needs to.
And don't worry, i have had problems with my front tooth for years, a root canal and a brand new pretty cap has solved the problems for me. It looks natural, I can smile again, and bite food. Don't be scared. It took me four dentists to find one that talked to me, and he can be impatient. His hygenitist gets after him if he is.

The only one thing you do is CLEAN your teeth ASAP after your meal (eating). Doctor always suggest you to patch up or to pull out your teeth. But if one tooth is pulled out another will rack.

You need to see another dentist. Someone needs to fill it or cap it to cover the nerve, which sounds like it's exposed. You won't lose your tooth - don't worry. You just need a little work done on it.
