Broken Teeth

Broken teeth are a dental emergency which can occur due to a number of reasons, including physical trauma from falling or contact sports, the loss of a filling, untreated tooth decay or teeth grinding. To try and prevent a broken tooth, itโ€™s important to practise good dental hygiene and have regular dental checkups. Any underlying dental issues such as gum disease, teeth grinding and loose or discoloured fillings should always be addressed quickly with our team as a preventative measure.

If you are playing contact sports, the use of a protective mouth guard will help protect your teeth from injury.

About this Condition

Regardless of the cause, itโ€™s important to book an appointment as soon as possible so you avoid further damage to the nerves, root and remaining teeth. Leaving a broken tooth untreated can also run the risk of exposing you to an impactful infection. Broken teeth can be alarming, but donโ€™t panic. Contact our team for an emergency appointment and weโ€™ll assess the damage and find the best option for you. Our team has expertise in a range of strong and natural-looking solutions which will preserve your mouth health and your dental aesthetics.ย 

With the right treatment, we can provide you with a renewed, healthy and bespoke smile. This might include:

  • ย  ย  Composite bonding
  • ย  ย  Dental implants
  • ย  ย  Bridges
  • ย  ย  Crowns
  • ย  ย  Composite fillings

We understand that in some cases of broken teeth the patient can experience a degree of pain or sensitivity. Square Mile Dental Centre always aims to arrange an emergency appointment as soon as possible. Before you arrive for your appointment, you can limit pain and extend your options by:

  • ย  ย  Gathering and storing any broken pieces of tooth in milk or water
  • ย  ย  Rinsing your mouth with water
  • ย  ย  Using an ice pack on the outside of the mouth if needed
  • ย  ย  Taking over-the-counter medication

If you cannot find or preserve any pieces of your tooth, do not worry, as we can always restore your smile. However, the most important thing you can do is to see a dentist as soon as possible, so if you have a broken tooth, book an appointment with us now.

The team at Square Mile Dental Centre are outstanding. Under Dr. Sanjay and Dr. Nikhil Sethi's excellent care, my gum condition is now greatly improved and my confidence has returned. Dr Elaine Mo and Dental Nurse, Shazna Begum have provided highly skilled, encouraging and patient support with teeth straightening using invisalign. I can't recommend this team highly enough.
