Repair Broken or Chipped Teeth

Restore damaged teeth quickly to protect your smile.

About the Treatment

Broken tooth appointments are priority visits for chipped, cracked, or fractured teeth. We carefully examine the damage, check nerve health, and recommend the most appropriate repair.

Treatment may include smoothing rough edges, composite bonding, fillings, crowns, or root canal treatment if the crack is deep. Early assessment improves the chance of saving the tooth and preventing infection.

Minor chips are often quick to repair, while larger fractures may require staged treatment. Alternatives depend on severity and may include veneers, crowns, or extraction if the tooth cannot be saved. After care usually involves avoiding hard foods on the affected tooth and attending review visits if symptoms change.

I had terrible experiences with dentists growing up, so as an adult I only go to dentists under duress. Tried 4 dentists and I finally struck gold with Dr Asa and his team! Now I have no issues going for my yearly check, I also am going through Angel aligners treatment because it's actually more affordable ($4,000 k cheaper than what I was quoted elsewhere). Dr Asa is super gentle and explains things well, his assistants must be telepaths because they always know what's needed, and Hola at reception is a lean mean efficient machine πŸ’ͺ Oh and he has Netflix on the ceiling for distraction πŸ˜† highly recommend if you're a wimp like me.

I hate going to the dentist! Dentist Roy was gentle and did a great job on 2 fillings, I couldn't feel my face so it was great that they said come back tomorrow for adjustment if my bite wasn't right. Its great they said that without me having to ask. 10/10.

I’ve been to a couple of dentists but this one is the best! Great staff who took care of my needs. The principal dentist Mr Asa Vete took the time to listen to my worries and explained my options. Much appreciated! Thank you and highly recommend.

I was feeling so nervous and embarrassed about my teeth after pregnancy and Dr Asa was so caring and understanding. I felt super validated and we have made a plan to fix my teeth in a way that works both financially and time wise for me. Thanks team!

Made my first visit back to the dentist after 10 years. Full mouth check up explained clearly, needed a root canal but the team made sure I was comfortable. Puts YOU first before money. Such a great team!

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions? We’ve got you covered. Here are answers to the most common queries our patients ask, so you can feel confident and informed before your visit.

Is a chipped tooth an emergency?
It can be, especially if there is pain or exposed nerve tissue. Early assessment is recommended.
Not always. Minor chips may only require bonding, while deeper cracks may need crowns or root canal treatment.
No. Dental fractures require professional treatment to prevent infection or worsening damage.
Even without pain, cracks can worsen over time. It is best to have it assessed.
