Chipped, Cracked & Broken Teeth
Despite teeth being made of the strongest substance in the body, they can still end up being chipped or cracked. Whether its a sports injury or you chewed on hard food, damage to your teeth is not uncommon.
At Perfect Smile, we will restore your smile through pain-free treatment of your chipped or cracked tooth.
Chipped Tooth Vs. Cracked Tooth
A cracked tooth is often the more serious of the two. Cracks can start at the gum line, damaging the tooth root and causing pain and discomfort.
The severity of chipped teeth depends on the size of the chip. Small chips can be fixed with some tooth fillings like composite resin, while bigger chips may require dental crowns.
In both cases, damage to your teeth may cause increased temperature sensitivity and pain while chewing.
What if I leave my tooth untreated?
If left untreated, cracked or chipped teeth can become painful and a major cause of discomfort. It may become difficult to eat or drink due to the increased temperature sensitivity.
It may also become a serious health concern, as pockets of bacteria can form within the tooth crack, spreading to other parts of the body.
For this reason, it is important to treat a broken tooth as soon as possible.
Will you remove my tooth?
In minor cases, we will use a restoration to fix your broken tooth. In the case of an infection in the tooth crack, we may use a root canal treatment to clean and save your tooth. If tooth removal is necessary, we use the highest quality dental implants and bridge to replace your tooth, matching its size and colour. You won’t even be able to tell the difference!
