Treatment of Fractured/Chipped/Worn-Down Tooth

Understanding Tooth Damage

A broken or chipped tooth is often the result of accidents or injuries, while tooth wear can occur due to grinding over the years, leading to chips or reducing tooth size. Severely worn-down teeth may appear yellowish and cannot be whitened but can be restored to enhance the natural curve of your smile line.

Treatment of Fractured/Chipped/Worn-Down Tooth

Procedure for Tooth Damage

Assessing tooth damage involves examining the extent of the injury. Minor chips or cracks can be fixed with dental bonding or veneers. Moderate damage often requires a dental crown to restore the tooth's shape. Severe damage might need a root canal to address deep issues. Treatment varies based on the injury's severity for optimal restoration.

FAQs

What causes a fractured, chipped, or worn-down tooth?

 These tooth issues can result from various factors, such as accidents, injuries, teeth grinding over the years (bruxism), or natural wear and tear.

Can a fractured tooth fragment be saved?

 If you find the fractured tooth fragment, it’s essential to store it in milk or saliva and seek an immediate appointment at Ekdantam Clinic. Our experts will assess the situation and determine the best course of action.

What are the treatment options for minor tooth fractures?

Minor tooth fractures can often be addressed on the same day through composite restoration. Our skilled cosmetic experts will carefully repair the damaged area, restoring the tooth’s natural appearance.

How can porcelain dental veneers help with severe tooth damage?

Porcelain dental veneers are thin, handcrafted facings that cover the front surfaces of teeth. They are an ideal solution for severely chipped, broken, or worn-down teeth, effectively concealing cosmetic concerns and restoring the tooth’s aesthetics.

When is root canal treatment necessary for a damaged tooth?

 If the pulp (nerve) of the tooth becomes exposed due to extensive damage, root canal treatment may be required to save the tooth from further harm and potential extraction.

Is composite or porcelain restoration better for tooth repair?

Both composite and porcelain restorations are durable, but porcelain is generally more resistant to discoloration over time. Our cosmetic expert at Ekdantam Clinic can advise you on the best option based on your specific case.
