Frequently asked questions
What causes your teeth to become chipped?
A chipped tooth can occur due to various factors. These include trauma or injury, biting hard on food or objects, weakened enamel, tooth decay, Bruxism, age & wear, poor dental hygiene, dental restorations that are outdated or subject to excessive force, and malocclusions.
Is it possible to restore chipped teeth to their original condition?
Yes, it is possible to restore chipped teeth to their original shape and form when performed by a skilled cosmetic dentist. The method of restoration depends on the severity of the condition. Minor damages only need simple techniques like composite bonding or teeth contouring. More extensive damages require crowns, veneers, fillings, or even dental implants. The success usually depends on how soon you get treatment. Delayed treatment can cause more damage.
What are the treatment options to restore chipped teeth?
The treatment options for a chipped tooth can vary depending on the severity and location of the chip, as well as individual factors such as dental health and patient preferences. Dental treatment for chipped teeth includes dental bonding, porcelain veneers, dental crowns, enamel contouring, root canal treatment, and dental implants & bridges.
Will teeth look natural once the treatment has been completed?
Yes, colour-matched restorative treatments resemble natural teeth. Dental bonding uses composite material matched perfectly with your tooth colour to sculpt and mould it to replace the missing part of your tooth. Crowns and veneers are custom-made using 3D impressions to fit precisely.
How long does the treatment take?
Dental contouring and bonding can take less than an hour, while crown and veneer fitting can take 1-2 hours. The entire process of a dental implant can take weeks, or in the case of same-day implants, a day.
Does chipped teeth treatment require shaving or other invasive procedures?
In the case of teeth contouring or enameloplasty, a small amount of enamel is gently filed to reshape the contours. Veneers and crowns also require a minimal amount of enamel to be removed from the surface of the teeth to fit them over teeth comfortably. In dental bonding, dentists lightly etch the tooth surface using a special gel for the composite resin to adhere securely.
What types of materials are used to restore chipped teeth?
Composite resin, porcelain, ceramic, zirconia, and gold are the most used materials in dental restorations.
How long do the results last?
The longevity of dental treatments can vary. Dental bonding typically lasts between 5 to 10 years, whereas veneers can last up to 15 years. Crowns can last anywhere from 5 to 15 years, depending on how well they are maintained. Tooth contouring is a permanent procedure, as it involves removing a small amount of your natural tooth enamel. With proper care, a dental implant can last a lifetime.
How do you tend to your dental health once your teeth have been restored?
Caring for restored teeth is essential to maintaining longevity, appearance, and oral health. Good oral hygiene, using non-abrasive toothpaste, avoiding biting hard foods or objects, minimising staining substances, preventing teeth grinding, regular dental exams, and regular visits to the hygienist can keep your restored teeth healthy.
