One unfortunate bite can lead to serious dental pain, and even damage. Unfortunately, while our teeth are able to recover from relatively minor amounts of decay, injuries can leave them permanently altered. If you have a tooth that is chipped or cracked, it can cause a range of issues. If the tooth is more prominent in your smile, you may be particularly bothered by how it affects your appearance. Your dentist may be able to restore your tooth’s appearance after just one appointment, by performing a dental bonding treatment. Dental bonding involves a careful application of composite resin, a material also used to construct fillings. This material will provide a natural cover, making your tooth look healthy and intact once again.
Should I Undergo A Dental Bonding Treatment To Address My Chipped Or Cracked Tooth?
Not every instance of dental damage should be treated through cosmetic dental work. One important consideration is the effect that damage has on your ability to absorb biting and chewing pressures with the tooth in question. Fortunately, you can still have one-visit restorative dental work, thanks to the presence of CEREC technology in our office, which can have a dental crown made for you in just one appointment.
Watch Out For These Issues, And Protect Your Smile From Future Damages
Our teeth are impressively strong, but an unfortunate bite can lead to serious damages. These moments, like physical injuries, can come seemingly out of nowhere, making them hard to anticipate. One issue you can stay guarded against is damage from teeth grinding. If you notice that you tend to wake up with sore or sensitive teeth, you may be grinding them while you sleep – this can lead to real problems. Your dentist can help by providing you with a special mouth guard to keep your smile safe.
