Damaged Tooth Care in Lugarno and Beyond
One of the most common dental emergencies we treat is a broken or chipped tooth. When you visit our dental clinic for treatment, here’s what you can expect to happen:
- Comprehensive diagnosis — First, we’ll examine your teeth and gums to assess the extent of the damage. If necessary, we’ll take x-rays before explaining the situation and recommending treatment.
- Prompt intervention — Once we understand the damage and have a treatment plan in place, we’ll ensure your comfort before fixing your tooth. We offer nitrous oxide and IV sedation to keep you calm and alleviate any anxiety.
Personalised Treatment for Your Smile
There are numerous treatment options for a chipped or broken tooth; depending on your unique situation, we may recommend:
- Enameloplasty — For a minor chip, we can smooth and polish your tooth’s surface.
- Bonding — We can add composite resin to the broken area, restoring your tooth’s shape and size.
- Veneers — Sometimes, a thin porcelain shell is added to the front side of your tooth to conceal the damage and protect your tooth.
- Crowns — A crown covers your entire tooth; we use a dental crown for more significant damage.
- Root canal — If your tooth’s nerve is exposed, we may have to perform a root canal before adding a crown.
- Extraction — For severe damage where the tooth can’t be saved, we can extract your tooth and recommend replacement options.
