Do I need to apply for a new DTV if I renew my passport with a damaged page?

ORIGINAL POSTER
My passport, which has my DTV linked to it, has a minor tear on the first page right after the bio-data section. This happened when airport staff flipped through the pages roughly. I was able to enter without issue, but I’m concerned the tear might worsen.

If I renew my passport and have the new one sent to Thailand, will I need to apply for a brand-new DTV from the start? Or can I continue to use the old, slightly damaged passport together with the new one until my current DTV expires? I’m aware the visa is tied to the old passport number, which won’t match the reissued passport.
