Broken or Chipped Tooth

Don’t wait to repair a chipped or broken tooth

Even a small chip or crack can lead to sensitivity, pain, or further damage if left untreated. At Rox Dental Studio, we offer fast, comfortable treatment options that restore both the appearance and function of your tooth—often in just one visit. Our goal is to save your natural tooth whenever possible while keeping you comfortable and confident.

Treatment options for a broken tooth

We customize each repair based on the extent of the damage.

Dental bonding

Ideal for small chips and surface cracks. Composite resin restores shape, color, and smoothness in one visit.

Crowns

Full coverage protection for larger breaks or teeth weakened by decay or prior fillings.

Inlays or onlays

A conservative option for moderate damage, restoring strength without a full crown.

Root canal therapy

If a crack reaches the pulp, we remove the infection and seal the tooth before placing a crown.

Our precise restorations are color-matched to blend seamlessly with your natural smile.

Common causes of a broken or chipped tooth

Prompt care prevents worsening fractures, infection, and discomfort.

What to do before your appointment

Rinse gently with warm water to keep the area clean.

If there’s pain, take over-the-counter pain relief as directed.

Cover sharp edges with dental wax or sugar-free gum.

Save any tooth fragments and bring them to your visit—they may help with the repair.

FAQs

Is it painful to fix a broken tooth?

No. We use local anesthesia to keep you comfortable during treatment.

Can a chipped front tooth be fixed the same day?

Yes. Cosmetic bonding often restores appearance in a single visit.

What if the tooth hurts when I bite down?

That may indicate a deeper crack. We’ll examine it thoroughly to prevent infection or further damage.

Do you treat emergency cases?

Yes. We reserve time each day for same-day emergencies.
