The treatment for cracked and chipped teeth
Treatments for a Cracked & Chipped tooth generally involves dental restoration, this can include:
- Dental Tooth Fillings
- Crowns & Bridges
- Veneers & Dental Implants
- Root Canal Treatment (in more severe cases)
-
What happens if you ignore it?
If a cracked or chipped tooth is ignored it can lead to more complications such as the tooth splitting or breaking. This can expose sensitive nerve ending within the tooth causing severe pain. Damage to the nerve may require root canal treatment and in some cases may lead to the loss of your tooth.
