Expert Tooth Fracture Repair: Restoring Your Smile's Health and Beauty

A broken, chipped, or cracked tooth is more than just a cosmetic issue—it can cause significant pain, sensitivity to hot and cold, and leave the tooth vulnerable to further damage or infection. Whether from an unexpected accident or biting down on something hard, a fractured tooth requires immediate professional attention. At our clinic in Antalya, we offer a comprehensive range of treatments to expertly repair fractured teeth, restoring their natural function, strength, and appearance.

Customized Solutions for Every Type of Fracture

The best treatment for a fractured tooth depends entirely on the type and severity of the damage. Our experienced dentists will conduct a thorough examination to determine the most effective and conservative solution for your specific situation.

• For Minor Chips & Cracks: Small chips, especially on front teeth, can often be perfectly repaired in a single visit using Aesthetic Bonding. A tooth-colored composite resin is skillfully sculpted to the tooth to restore its original shape, making the repair virtually invisible.

• For Larger Fractures: When a larger piece of a tooth (like a cusp) breaks off, a simple filling may not be sufficient. In these cases, a custom-made Porcelain Inlay, Onlay, or a full Dental Crown is used. These restorations are fabricated to fit the tooth precisely, providing superior strength and protection.

• For Fractures Affecting Front Teeth: If a front tooth is chipped or cracked, a Porcelain Veneer can be an excellent solution. This thin, durable shell of porcelain is bonded to the front of the tooth, masking the fracture and creating a beautiful, flawless appearance.

• For Severe Fractures: If a crack extends into the tooth's pulp (the nerve), a Root Canal Treatment will be necessary to save the tooth from infection and extraction. Afterward, a Dental Crown is placed over the tooth to hold it together and restore its function.

Key Benefits of Professional Fracture Repair:

• Protects Remaining Tooth Structure: Prompt treatment seals the tooth, preventing bacteria from entering and causing infection or further decay.

• Restores Natural Look and Strength: Our advanced materials and techniques ensure that the repaired tooth not only looks natural but can also withstand normal chewing forces.

• Prevents Further Damage: Repairing a fracture stops the crack from spreading and prevents the tooth from breaking down further over time.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• Q: Can every fractured tooth be fixed?

  • A: The vast majority of fractured teeth can be successfully repaired and saved. However, in very severe cases where the fracture extends deep below the gumline or splits the root, extraction may be the only viable option to protect your overall oral health.

• Q: Is the repair procedure painful?

  • A: No. Your comfort is our priority. All tooth fracture repair procedures are performed using effective local anaesthesia to ensure a comfortable and painless experience.
