Children who play sports or certain instruments are more prone to chipped teeth. It is an unfortunate risk of some activities. The most important thing is that the chipped tooth is repaired quickly and professionally. You need a dentist from Chester Road Family Dental to guarantee the tooth is repaired in the most effective way.

Before choosing a general dentistry treatment for repairing the tooth, we will first need to assess the damage. We will invite you to visit Chester Road Family Dental for an appointment. Your dental team will then carry out an exam and decide on the best course of action. The type of repair will depend on a number of factors, such as where the tooth is located and the severity of the damage. Typically repair options include fillings or bonding with a tooth-colored composite resin.

Repairs to Cracked or Broken Teeth

There are various ways that we can repair cracked or broken teeth. Much like with a chipped tooth, the repair treatment that we choose is dictated by the damage to the tooth and where it rests in the mouth. It is the job of Chester Road Family Dental to make sure the tooth is restored and strengthened, so we will always choose the most suitable treatment.

Besides filling and bonding, other repair options include crowns, or we will remove the broken tooth and replace it with an implanted tooth or bridge. We do not remove healthy teeth unless it is absolutely necessary. We will always attempt to repair the tooth where possible.
