How to heal a cracked tooth?

I've been reading this stuff about Dr. Weston price about how enamel can re-grow if you have the right diet, anyone heard of it? I know someone who knows someone who says it worked on their kid who had cavities..
I tried it for a while (several months) but it hasn't worked yet, probably a long shot but I'm open to suggestions about how to re-grow enamel naturally. The tooth has exposed dentin but not exposed nerves.
I've started taking clove oil twice daily.
I don't want to get a filling at the dentist because I distrust the chemical bonding agent they use, I just want to be all natural so I'd rather pull the tooth than fill it.
thanks

Nope. Won't happen. Teeth are like rocks, once you break them, your once-useful boulder is now gravel. Your body cannot regenerate tooth enamel, you're stuck with the teeth you're born with (ever see a baby skull? Looks like some alien shit, because the adult teeth are all right there in the jaw under the baby teeth, and they slowly grow out as the jaw fills in).
Dental fillings are pretty much superglue and sand. I wouldn't worry about them. Then again, as a chemist, I don't know why people worry about 99% of the shit they worry about when it comes to that stuff...just because it has a big name and you can't pronounce it, doesn't mean it's bad for you. There are very few exceptions to that rule. Usually (food specifically) they just go with the big complicated name because it's the most accurate, and accuracy counts a LOT. "Salt" isn't good enough. What kind of salt? Mercuric chloride is a salt. A highly toxic salt. Sodium chloride is also a salt. If we don't eat enough of that, our hearts will stop.
Edit: I guess you could just wear the surrounding tooth down with some fine grit sandpaper until it is back to being smooth and shiny, but I don't think that's what you're going for here.

Yeah, every time I've had a cracked tooth...it was either ground down and had a crown put on it...or, if the crack went down to the root...extracted.
Important note...if the crack goes below the gum...don't let it go because the bacteria can travel down through the crack and you can get a very painful infection....happened to me.

You can mend a chip on a tooth by brushing really well, then etching with phosphoic acid on a q-tip for 30 seconds. Rinse the acid off with clean water and drying the tooth completely with an air source. Fill the chipped area with UV cure glue paste and zap it with one of those ebay special UV LED 365nm lights for 30 to 60 seconds.File down to conform if needed. Best to have someone do this for you.
To fix a crack- it can only be done if the crack is new and isn't down the root, use the same procedure, except use the thin liquid type UV glue instead. In either case the repair will last about 20 years if done right.
I am going for an extraction in a couple days because i got a cracked tooth, thing chipped on the back to the guts and cracked down the root on the other end. Hurts like hell and is unfixable since the pulp is infected and it has a lot of internal decay. Sucks!

The crater in my tooth is lined with new white enamel, the horrible smell and blackness in my tooth is completely gone. Thank you Weston Price.

It's hard to say what the key factor was. I didn't have a dental mirror during the time when it healed, so I am not able to determine when it healed. I changed my diet considerably over the past 2 months, more than once. And initially I wasn't following what perhaps a key or the key component of the price diet, because I didn't understand it.
I was chewing on whole cloves which contain clove oil when I wrote the first post, but I ran out quickly and sought out clove oil at the health food store. This lady was raving about this 'uncle henrys tooth enamel remineralization kit'
which I bought for like $20. It has clove and a bunch of other stuff so I thought I would give it a shot. This kit has nothing to do with weston price by the way.
It's a 3 part kit consisting of 3 bottles. 1 is 'remineralization liquid.' ingredients are unspecified 'ionic minerals', himilayan pink sea salt, essential oils of peppermint eucalyptus clove wintergreen oregano.
also a mouthwash with a ton of ingredients like mustard seed and magnetic earth.
also tooth powder, for brushing, calcium carbonate and stuff, essential oils here too.
I don't know if that kit had a significant impact but it might have, heck it might have been the sole cause for the turn around for all I know.
--- Anyhow what I feel way key was the bone soup, you get the knuckle bone from a cow, with the tendons still on it and you pressure cook it for 6 hours. The tendon almost liquifies and the bone at the joint becomes exceedingly brittle so that you can bite into it and chew it and eat it. Ask for dog bones from the butcher.
So in summary, I was eating the tendons, eating the actual bone and eating the marrow. I only made this soup twice during the healing period and ate from it for 2 days eat time. I at enough bone to fill maybe a chicken egg at most. And beside the soup I was using the re-mineralization kit.
Inutitively I feel the key was some part of the soup, perhaps the tendon, or the bone or the marrow, or all three in combination who really knows. I say this because each time the day after I ate the soup I could feel my teeth from the inside really 'glow' in a very healthy way, kind of an amazing feeling.
If you have a decaying tooth, I'd appreciate it if you would try this soup and report back. The 6 hour cook is essential(15 psi), don't cook it less than that. First of all the bone won't soften up properly and second the tendon won't be as bioavailable accoring to someone who taught me about the soup. The traditional way is a low heat 48 hr cook.
I made the soup twice, 3 weeks apart from eachother, so it doesn't take much.
I would think you should see results fairly quickly, like a few weeks or less. I'd love to narrow down what was the actual cause... could just be one ingredient, I suspect the tendon to be the key player based on some research I've done on primitive tribal diets and dental work. It's really gross and gelatinous when cooked, and has no real flavor.

Oh yea one more thing, weston price goes on an on about liver, and how good it is for you. So I was eating beef liver every 3 days, and I was eating mackerel, mostly I threw the guts out but recently I've been getting more daring, eating the heart/liver/spine/fins/brain/kidney. But I wasn't too much into the fish guts during the time I was healing, at most I maybe ate one fish liver.
There is this whole diet regime weston price says will heal you like cod liver oil, vitamin k2 (from cow butter etc.), vitamin d, etc etc. It's all online just google it. I was doing all that stuff and more, but most of it is probably not necessary.
The two famous groups of people who regrow their enamel regularly are the Inuit tribe (eskimos) and the tribes in Africa like the Wakambe and probably the Pigmys too.
If I were you I'd try the bone soup... and if that didn't work add beef liver. If that doesn't fix you I'd be very surprised, because the previous tribes are heavy into meat, especially the wakambe, who in the 1920s pretty much only ate raw meat.
