A damaged veneer, crown, bridge or other dental restoration can be both uncomfortable and concerning, particularly when it affects the appearance of your smile. Sydney Emergency Dentist can assess the affected area and discuss appropriate treatment options based on the condition of the restoration and the tooth underneath.
If a veneer or crown breaks or comes loose, keep any pieces and bring them to your appointment. Avoid using household glue or attempting to permanently reattach the restoration yourself. If the affected tooth feels sensitive, avoid very hot, cold, hard or sticky foods until you receive dental advice.
A damaged restoration does not always require replacement. Depending on the circumstances, a dentist may be able to repair, temporarily protect or replace the restoration. The appropriate option depends on factors such as the extent of the damage, the condition of the underlying tooth and the type of restoration involved.
