What do I do if I have broken or chipped a tooth?

Try and find the fragment and bring it with you to the dentist as soon as possible.

We will endeavour to reattach the fragment or rebuild the tooth. If the nerve is exposed, a dressing against the nerve to help maintain and keep the nerve alive may be placed. Rest assured that at Willow Dental Care, we have the appropriate materials to repair and maintain the tooth the correct way. Some practices only carry materials that can cause the tooth to become grey over time.
