Accidents happen, and a chipped tooth can occur due to a variety of reasons such as an injury to the mouth while playing sports, or eating hard foods and chewing them the wrong way. Regardless of how it happens, a chipped tooth may cause pain or leave you feeling self-conscious. At Alta Loma Dental Care we have a variety of cosmetic as well as restorative options to enhance your appearance and your dental health.
The downside to chipping a tooth is that you’ve lost your natural tooth structure, but it’s nothing a little dental bonding can’t fix. Dental bonding is a composite material that matches the color of your tooth and is molded over what’s left of the healthy tooth to restore it. If a cracked tooth is more severe, we may suggest veneers or dental crowns to shield the entire tooth and prevent further damage such as tooth decay or exposed nerves.
If you have questions or concerns about the appearance of your smile, please give us a call. To learn about services we provide at our practice, visit www.altalomadentalcare.com for more information. To schedule an appointment in our Alta Loma, CA office, call Alta Loma Dental Care at 909-987-6268.
