When to See a Dentist for a Chipped or Cracked Tooth
Not all dental damage causes pain right away, but it’s important to get evaluated as soon as possible. Even small cracks can expose the tooth to bacteria or lead to more serious issues.
Common signs you may need tooth repair include:
- Visible cracks or chips in the tooth enamel
- Sensitivity to temperature or pressure
- Sharp edges that irritate your tongue or cheek
- Pain when chewing or biting
- Swelling or discoloration near the affected tooth
If your injury is sudden and painful, we also offer emergency dental services to address urgent care needs quickly.
Treatment Options for Damaged Teeth
We offer several conservative and cosmetic options based on the severity and location of the damage:
- Dental Bonding
A quick, painless solution where tooth-colored resin is applied and shaped to restore small chips or cracks. Learn more on our dental bonding page. - Tooth-Colored Fillings
For minor structural damage, composite fillings offer a natural look and strong protection. - Porcelain Veneers
For front teeth with larger chips or aesthetic concerns, veneers provide long-lasting results with a seamless appearance. - Dental Crowns
For significant cracks or weakened teeth, a dental crown restores strength and function while protecting the natural tooth. - Root Canal Therapy
If a crack extends into the pulp of the tooth and causes infection, root canal therapy may be required to save the tooth before placing a crown.
Protecting Your Teeth After Repair
Once your tooth is restored, our team will provide guidance to keep it protected. You may benefit from:
- Wearing a sports guard or occlusal guard
- Avoiding chewing on hard objects like ice or pens
- Scheduling regular dental exams to monitor your restoration
- Discussing bruxism treatment if teeth grinding is contributing to damage
