Some dental chips cause pain, as they expose the tooth root. However, even if a chip doesn’t hurt, it changes the way your teeth interact. A break can expose the sensitive inner layers of your tooth (the dentin and pulp), making it vulnerable to:
Every break is unique, and our approach is personalized to address your needs. We use high-definition imaging to see exactly how far a fracture extends before recommending a course of action.
Treatment options we commonly use to resolve tooth damage include:
For minor chips (especially on front teeth) we use dental bonding, which involves sculpting a tooth-colored resin directly onto the enamel. We meticulously shade-match the resin to your natural teeth, and then cure it with a specialized light to create a virtually invisible bond.
If a significant portion of the tooth is missing or broken, we may install a crown for the ultimate renewal and protection. Unlike traditional clinics that require weeks of waiting and temporary caps, we use CEREC technology. Our modern equipment allows us to design, mill, and fit a permanent, high-strength porcelain crown in a single appointment.
When a break affects the aesthetics of your smile, veneers offer a transformative solution. These thin, durable shells of porcelain are custom-fitted over the front of the tooth, masking the damage while providing a durable, stain-resistant new surface.
In cases where a break is deep enough to reach the dental pulp, the living part of your tooth may be at risk. Our team provides endodontic treatment to clear away infection and seal the tooth to preserve it.
