Although tooth enamel is the strongest part of the body, it can easily become damaged, leading to the deterioration of the whole tooth.
All it takes is to bite on something we aren’t supposed to, and before you know it, you’re in need of chipped tooth repair, or worse still, broken tooth repair.
This is where we come in. At Cheadle Hulme Dental and Cosmetics, we excel in broken or chipped tooth treatment, restoring both the tooth function and natural appearance.
When you pay us a visit, you will have a variety of treatments to choose from for that restoring a damaged tooth or teeth. A chipped front tooth repair, for example, could easily be fixed by using either of the following.
Cosmetic bonding, for instance, uses a pliable tooth-coloured resin which, when set, is super strong. Alternatively, porcelain veneers are thin shell-like covers which are designed to fit over the exact surface of the tooth, while dental crowns cover the whole tooth right down to the tooth base. All of these methods are quick, convenient, and relatively long-lasting and can be matched to the natural shading of your teeth for a seamless loob that doesn’t appear ‘out of place’.
Chipped tooth options
If you have a chipped tooth, or maybe other damage or white fillings, there are a number of ways of solving this problem. The chipped area could be repaired with bonding material. The tooth could be prepared and a bespoke crown made. A veneer is also an option, fitting over the top of the front of a tooth and fixed in place with dental adhesive cement.
FAQs
What about more serious tooth fractures or breaks?
Sometimes you can suffer a more serious broken tooth. Repair options such as those listed above might not work in these cases. When crowns, veneers, and cosmetic bonding are unsuitable, then you’ll be pleased to know that there are alternative treatments available such as white fillings, bridges, or dental implants which can all help to restore your natural tooth look.
The important thing to remember is that you should never have to suffer from a chipped or fractured tooth. Instead, come and talk to us about chipped tooth repair or broken tooth repair today. Contact us directly at 01614 860 743. We guarantee a natural-looking restoration that you’ll be proud of.
