Repairs for chips and cracks
ASSESSMENT · OPTIONS · CARE
The visible chip is only part of the picture. Your dentist checks how far the damage extends, whether the pulp is involved and how much sound tooth remains. Some teeth can be repaired; others need more extensive treatment.
HOW URGENT IS IT?
A broken tooth can get worse quickly, even when it does not hurt yet. Call today and we will see you as soon as possible.

AFTER YOUR VISIT
Your dentist’s personalised advice takes priority.
CONTACT US
Call promptly even if pain is mild. Explain swelling, bleeding, an injury or difficulty opening your mouth.
PROTECT THE TOOTH
Choose softer foods and avoid biting on the damaged tooth. Do not use household glue to repair it.
KEEP A FRAGMENT
If a piece has broken off, keep it in milk or saliva in a container and bring it to your appointment.
Medical emergency: For difficulty breathing or swallowing, severe facial swelling or uncontrolled bleeding, seek urgent medical help and call 000. A knocked-out adult tooth is time-sensitive: call for immediate dental advice.
UNDERSTAND YOUR OPTIONS
The size and depth of the fracture matter more than how it looks in a photograph. These are possible approaches after an examination.
Limited damage
A small chip or fractured filling may be rebuilt with a suitable restorative material.
Deeper damage
A weakened or cracked tooth may need a crown, and sometimes treatment of the pulp.
A crack does not heal like a broken bone. Treatment aims to manage the damaged tooth, but its prognosis depends on the crack’s extent. Referral may be recommended when specialist assessment would help.
CHIPPED OR CRACKED?
Call our team to describe what happened. We’ll advise how soon you should be seen.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Understand the proposed treatment before you decide. Your visit is planned around the findings of your assessment.
01
Tell us when the tooth broke, what triggers pain and whether there was an injury. Bring any recovered fragment.
02
The dentist examines the tooth and may use bite tests, pulp tests or imaging. Not every crack is visible on an X-ray.
03
Your dentist explains options to manage the problem, any temporary repair and the longer-term plan.
04
Attend the planned treatment and follow-up. Report worsening pain, swelling or a change in your bite.
PLAN WITH CONFIDENCE
A small filling and a tooth needing root canal treatment and a crown involve different care. We assess the damage and explain the proposed treatment and estimate before you decide.

A LITTLE MORE CLARITY
Many damaged teeth can be repaired, but this depends on the fracture, roots and remaining tooth. A split tooth or a crack extending too far may limit the options.
A painless chip or crack still needs assessment. Call to explain the problem so the clinic can advise how soon you should be seen.
Not every broken tooth needs either. A crown may protect a weakened tooth; root canal treatment is considered when the pulp needs treatment.
Call the team with your symptoms. Same-day availability depends on the schedule and urgency; it is confirmed by the clinic rather than guaranteed by an online request.
