Repaired today.
A broken, chipped, or cracked tooth needs same-day assessment — even if it doesn’t hurt. Sharp edges can lacerate soft tissue, exposed dentine is highly sensitive, and structural cracks can worsen rapidly. Call Horizon Dental now.
Assessment and repair of broken teeth every business day
look the same.
A broken tooth ranges in severity from a small cosmetic chip affecting only enamel to a deep fracture extending into the root. The severity determines the treatment — and the urgency. A simple chip may be repaired with composite bonding in one appointment. A broken cusp may require a crown. A tooth with a root fracture may require extraction.
Even if a broken tooth is not causing significant pain, it should be assessed promptly. Sharp edges can cut your tongue or cheek, and an unprotected exposed dentine or nerve is vulnerable to further damage and infection. Call us for a same-day assessment.
- Chipped enamel — Minor chip affecting only the outer enamel layer — often repairable with composite bonding in one appointment
- Broken cusp — A larger piece of tooth broken off — may expose dentine or nerve, typically requires a crown
- Cracked tooth — A vertical crack that may extend below the gum line — can be painful on biting, requires urgent assessment
- Split tooth — A fracture that has completely divided the tooth — may require extraction with implant replacement
- Fractured root — An unseen fracture below the gum — symptoms include deep pain and swelling, requires imaging to diagnose
If a piece of tooth has broken off, place it in milk or saline solution and bring it to your appointment. In some cases, the fragment can be reattached. Do not wrap in tissue or leave it dry.

Questions we hear from patients experiencing broken tooth repair. Call if yours isn’t here — we answer immediately.
Do I need to see a dentist immediately if my tooth is chipped but doesn't hurt?
Yes — a same-day assessment is strongly recommended, even without pain. Sharp edges can lacerate soft tissue, exposed dentine is vulnerable to further damage and infection, and structural cracks can extend rapidly under normal biting forces. Pain-free doesn’t mean consequence-free.
Can a broken tooth be repaired in one appointment?
We recommend visiting every six months for a routine checkup and clean. However, some patients with specific dental conditions may need to visit more frequently. Regular visits allow us to catch any issues early before they become costly or complex problems.
