If you chip a tooth, please don’t panic, but act quickly. First, gently swish your mouth with warm water to clean the area. If there’s any bleeding, apply gentle pressure with a piece of gauze or a clean cloth. Try to find and save any broken fragments, and store them in a clean container with milk or saliva. Avoid chewing on the damaged side and contact your dentist as soon as possible for an evaluation.
At Scottsdale Cosmetic Dentistry, we offer fast and effective solutions, including dental bonding and dental fillings in North Scottsdale, depending on the extent of the damage.
Common Treatments for Chipped Teeth
Dental bonding in Scottsdale is a great option for small to moderate chips, especially those that are visible when you smile. Using tooth-colored composite resin, we can reshape and restore the tooth in a single appointment. It’s a quick, affordable, and natural-looking solution.
For larger chips that affect the tooth’s function, or if the tooth has decay or damage, we may recommend a dental filling or even a crown to fully restore its strength and shape.
