Badly Broken Tooth

What Causes a Tooth to Break Badly?

  • Untreated cavities that weaken the tooth
  • Old fillings or root canal-treated teeth that fracture
  • Injury from sports or falls

When a tooth breaks deep or near the gum line, prompt treatment is essential to avoid pain, infection, or further damage.


Treatment Options for a Broken Tooth

  • Composite Restoration: For small-to-moderate chips
  • Dental Crown: To protect and strengthen weak or cracked teeth
  • Biomimetic Restorations: Natural-looking, minimally invasive repairs
  • Root Canal + Crown: If the nerve is exposed or infected
  • Dental Implants: For non-restorable or severely broken teeth

Each case is unique — we evaluate the break and recommend the most conservative yet long-lasting solution.
