Broken and Chipped Teeth

Dream Smile Dental - Facial & Body Aesthetics

A broken or chipped tooth can affect both the appearance and function of your smile. Whether caused by trauma, biting on hard foods, or underlying dental issues, addressing the problem quickly is essential to prevent further damage.

At Dream Smile Dental Clinic, we offer advanced restorative treatments to repair and strengthen damaged teeth, restoring both aesthetics and function.

What should I do if I chip my tooth?
Rinse your mouth, save any broken pieces if possible, and visit a dentist immediately.

Can a chipped tooth heal on its own?
No, a chipped tooth will not regenerate; professional treatment is required.

Is fixing a broken tooth painful?
Most treatments involve minimal discomfort, especially with modern dental techniques.

How long do repairs last?
Depending on the treatment, restorations can last years with proper care.

Can a broken tooth lead to further problems?
Yes, leaving a broken or chipped tooth untreated can lead to infection, decay, or further fractures.

Common Common Causes of Broken and Chipped Teeth

  • Accidental Trauma – Falls, sports injuries, or direct impact to the mouth.
  • Biting Hard Objects – Chewing on ice, hard candies, or unpopped popcorn kernels.
  • Tooth Decay & Weakened Enamel – Cavities or erosion can make teeth more vulnerable to fractures.

Treatment options

  • Composite Bonding Uses tooth-coloured resin to repair minor chips and fractures. Quick and painless procedure with immediate results. Ideal for small to medium-sized chips.
  • Porcelain Veneers Thin custom-made shells that cover the front of the tooth. Suitable for chipped front teeth that require aesthetic enhancement. Durable and long-lasting solution.
  • Dental Crowns Covers and protects a severely broken tooth. Restores strength and functionality. Custom-made to match the natural tooth.
  • Inlays & Onlays Ideal for larger fractures that do not require a full crown. Provides strength while preserving more of the natural tooth.
  • Root Canal Treatment Necessary if the crack extends to the tooth’s pulp, causing pain or infection. Removes infected tissue and seals the tooth to prevent further damage.
  • Tooth Extraction & Dental Implants Recommended for teeth that cannot be saved. Implants restore function and aesthetics with a natural-looking replacement.

What our patients say

I saw Dr Mohsen over the course of 15 months for Invisalign and composite bonding. The treatment provided was nothing short of exceptional and I am thrilled with the end results. Dr Mohsen truly is skilled when it comes to correcting both cosmetic and functional (bite) issues with Invisalign, working to give you the absolute best result possible . It is clear from speaking with Dr Mohsen (even from the very first consultation) is a genuine care for patients and giving them honest advice on what would be the best solution for them as opposed to simply looking to make a sale as I have found was the case with other consultations I had. I was re assured throughout the treatment that everything was going to plan (including regular checkups with the dr himself every 4-6 weeks) and where amendments were needed / I had questions or concerns these were addressed and with the upmost attention. If you are looking for an experienced, caring and affordable Invisalign provider, I would thoroughly recommend the clinic and Dr Mohsen- you will not regret the decision.

As a dentist myself, I know I can be quite particular when it comes to detail but Dr. Mohsen was kind enough to take me on for my smile makeover, and I couldn’t be happier with the result. He placed 8 veneers for me, and I’ve had so many compliments on how beautiful and natural they look.

What really stood out was how gentle and caring he was throughout the process! I didn’t even feel his injections! He genuinely took the time to make sure I was comfortable and looked after at every stage. It’s rare to find someone with such a great mix of technical skill and emotional intelligence in dentistry.

Thank you, Dr. Mohsen, for giving me a smile I’m proud of!

I’ve been a patient at Dream Smile since 2014 and couldn’t be happier. As someone who dreaded going to the dentist due previous traumatic experiences, I can confidentially say that Dr Mohsen and the team look after their patients with exceptional care.
Thank you looking after my teeth with such care for over 10years, I couldn’t be happier and would recommend you over and over again!

Treatments: Invisalign, gum contour, root canal, filling replacements
