Broken Tooth in Surrey, BC
A fast fix before it gets worse
A chipped or broken tooth can range from a minor cosmetic annoyance to a genuine emergency, depending on how much of the tooth is affected and whether the nerve is exposed. Either way, it's worth having it looked at quickly - a broken tooth can have sharp edges that irritate your tongue or cheek, and an exposed area is more vulnerable to infection. We'll assess the damage and repair it with bonding, a crown, or another option depending on severity.

Common Questions
Frequently asked.
Is a broken tooth always an emergency?
Not always, but it's best to be assessed promptly, especially if there's pain, sensitivity, or a sharp edge, since these can indicate the nerve is affected.
What should I do right after breaking a tooth?
Rinse gently with warm water, save any broken pieces if possible, and avoid chewing on that side until you're seen.
How is a broken tooth repaired?
Treatment depends on the extent of the break - smaller chips are often fixed with bonding, while larger fractures may need a crown or, in severe cases, a root canal.
Can a broken tooth get worse if I wait?
Yes, an exposed or weakened tooth is more vulnerable to further cracking or infection, so it's best not to delay treatment.
