3 Ways to Fix a Chipped Tooth | Kierland Dental Studio

Dentist Paradise Valley



Dealing with a chipped tooth can be uncomfortable and can affect your confidence. Fortunately, at Kierland Dental Center, we offer several solutions to restore your smile based on your unique needs.

Here are three options we may recommend:

  1. Dental Bonding
    Dental bonding is an excellent solution for small, cosmetic chips. During this procedure, we prepare the tooth’s surface by roughening the enamel. Then, we apply a tooth-colored composite material, which is shaped to replace the chip. The material is hardened using a special light, resulting in a durable restoration that can last up to ten years with proper care.
  2. Porcelain Veneers
    For more extensive damage or if you’ve chipped your tooth multiple times, porcelain veneers may be the best option. Veneers are thin shells made of porcelain that are custom-designed to cover the front surface of your teeth, providing a natural appearance and strength comparable to natural enamel. We start by removing a small amount of enamel, take impressions of your teeth, and place temporary veneers. Once the permanent veneers are ready, we remove the temporaries, clean the teeth, and bond the new veneers in place for a perfect fit and a beautiful smile.
  3. Dental Crowns
    Dental crowns are ideal for restoring teeth that have significant damage or are at risk of further damage. Crowns cover the entire tooth, restoring its shape, size, and function. They are recommended when a large portion of the original tooth is missing or when the tooth is severely damaged, causing discomfort while eating or drinking. Crowns protect the tooth from decay or exposed nerves and can be placed quickly to restore your smile.
