Chipped or broken tooth repair in Dubai
Chips happen from biting hard food, accidents or grinding. Most can be repaired invisibly when treated early.
A small chip is usually repaired in one visit with tooth-coloured composite bonding. Larger breaks may need a veneer or crown, and fractures reaching the nerve need root canal treatment first. Keep any broken piece and book promptly, especially if the tooth is sensitive.
Key facts
- Small chip → bonding, often one visit
- Large break → crown or veneer
- Nerve exposed → root canal first
- Keep the broken fragment
Small chips
Composite bonding rebuilds the edge in the tooth's own shade, often in a single visit with little or no drilling.
Larger fractures
When a large part of the tooth is lost, a crown or porcelain veneer protects and restores it.
When the nerve is involved
Pain, a pink spot or exposed nerve means root canal treatment before the tooth is rebuilt.
Composite bonding shapes tooth-coloured resin directly onto the tooth to repair chips, close small gaps or even out edges. It usually needs little or no drilling and is completed in a single appointment.
