Hello and thank you for the inquiry! Breaking and discoloration in the teeth is a sign of worsening cavities and infection in the pulp of the tooth which can then travel to the jawbones where it often causes pain and swelling. The bacteria do cause increased risk of heart disease, diabetes, and stroke, and this damage is not reversible by brushing and flossing. I recommend finding a dentist you trust and are comfortable with to help you resolve this and restore your teeth.
