Broken Tooth

The treatment for a broken tooth depends on the extent of the damage and the location of the tooth.

Common treatment options include:

Dental Bonding: For minor fractures or chips, dental bonding can be used to restore the tooth’s appearance and function. A tooth-coloured resin is applied to the affected area and shaped to match the natural tooth.

Dental Crowns: If the break is more significant or affects a large portion of the tooth, a dental crown may be recommended. The crown covers the entire tooth, providing strength and protection while restoring its shape and function.

Root Canal Therapy: If the damage extends to the tooth’s pulp or nerve, a root canal may be necessary to remove the damaged tissue and save the tooth. The tooth is then restored with a crown to ensure its longevity.

Tooth Extraction: In cases where the tooth is severely damaged and cannot be saved, extraction may be necessary. We will discuss replacement options, such as dental implants or bridges, to restore your smile and function.
