Restorative Dentistry in Sri Petaling, KL
Restorative Dentistry
A chipped tooth, a missing crown, or a worn-down filling can impact not just your oral health, but also your confidence. At E. L. Lim Dental Surgery, our restorative dentistry services offer a range of solutions to repair damaged teeth and restore your smile’s function.
Our Services
Dental Filling
If the break is minor and only affects the enamel, we may repair it using dental filling. It involves applying a tooth-coloured resin to the tooth and shaping it to restore its appearance and function.
Dental Crown
For more significant breaks or fractures that compromise the structure of the tooth, a dental crown may be necessary. A crown is a custom-made cap that covers the entire tooth above the gumline, restoring its shape, size, strength, and appearance.
Veneers
If the break affects the front teeth and is primarily cosmetic, we may recommend a dental veneer. Veneers are thin shells made of porcelain or composite resin that are bonded to the front surface of the tooth to improve its appearance.
Root Canal Therapy
If the break extends into the pulp chamber of the tooth, it may expose the nerves and blood vessels, leading to pain and increased risk of infection. In such cases, root canal therapy may be necessary to remove the damaged tissue, disinfect the tooth, and seal it to prevent further infection.
Management of Broken Tooth
For a broken tooth, it’s essential to seek dental treatment promptly to prevent further damage and alleviate any pain or discomfort.
Tooth Extraction
In severe cases where the tooth cannot be saved, extraction may be the only option. After extraction, we may recommend replacing the missing tooth with a dental implant, bridge, or denture to restore function and appearance.
Pain Management
While waiting for dental treatment, you can manage pain and swelling by taking over-the-counter pain relievers, applying a cold compress to the affected area, and avoiding chewing on the broken tooth.
Tips:
- If you have a chipped tooth, cover the sharp edge with sugar-free gum or wax to avoid cutting your tongue or cheek.
- If you play sports, consider wearing a mouthguard to protect your teeth from injury.
