CRACKED AND CHIPPED TEETH

Restoring Strength and Confidence

Cracked or chipped teeth can range from small cosmetic flaws to deeper fractures that compromise the tooth’s structure. Even minor damage can expose sensitive inner layers, leading to pain, infection, or further breakage. Addressing these problems early helps preserve your natural teeth and prevents the need for more complex treatments in the future.

Treatment Options for Cracked and Chipped Teeth:

• Bonding repairs small chips and restores natural shape
  
• Crowns strengthen and protect teeth with significant damage
  
• Veneers can improve the appearance of front teeth with cosmetic enhancement
• Root Canal Therapy helps Treat deep cracks that extend into the pulp

At Laser Dental Bakersfield, our goal is to help you maintain strong, healthy teeth and avoid damage before it happens. Along with personalized treatments, we recommend practical habits to reduce the risk of chips and cracks.

Tips to Prevent Cracks and Chips:

• Wear a Mouth Guard – Use a custom guard during sports or at night if you grind your teeth
  
• Avoid Hard Foods and Objects – Limit chewing ice, hard candy, or non-food items that stress enamel
  
• Maintain Regular Dental Visits – Checkups allow us to catch early signs of wear or weakness
• Practice Good Oral Hygiene – Brush and floss daily to keep enamel strong and resilient
