Hello Thomas Teeth are not considered as bone, i agree with that , that teeth are also made of of Calcium and a calcified layer is also there but teeth cannot be reffered as Bone. Tooth can be defined as "One of the hard, calcified structures set in the alveolar processes for the biting and mastication of food. Secondly the word "fracture" can only be used for the breaking of bone only by the medical point of view. And broken tooth is not considered as fracture. HAVE A NICE DAY THOMAS !!!
