Chipped or Broken tooth are accidental and can be a sign of weakened tooth structure. If you had experienced tooth fracture or broken tooth due to following reasons
- stone or similar particle in food
- accidental chip due to the bottle opening
- unexpected chip due to nail biting
- chip due to unknown reason
We can address them with simple solutions at most times.
White resin filling material is used to restore a chipped tooth. A bonding process is used for this purpose.
But a complex chip or broken tooth needs more than a simple treatment. If the lost tooth structure is more than one third to half the healthy tooth structure, a ceramic crown or a veneer is recommended to improve the look and restore the function of the broken tooth back to its healthy state.
