Chipped tooth repair treatment options
There are several treatment routes you can take to repair a chipped tooth. However, the treatment typically depends on the extent of the damage and your budget.
Composite bonding (perfect for same-day chipped tooth repair)
Costs from £295
Composite bonding uses tooth-coloured material applied in thin layers to your tooth and then cured with UV light. The dentist then shapes and sculpts the material with a scalpel to ensure it blends seamlessly with the rest of your smile. Composite bonding is a quick, pain-free procedure that typically lasts 5-10 years.
Dental crowns are the traditional option
Cost from £995
Dental crowns are designed to repair heavily damaged teeth. They act as a cap made to order from impressions of your teeth and sit on top of the damaged tooth to protect its underlying structure.
We offer several types of crowns, from same-day options such as Emax and Zirconia to more traditional materials like porcelain, gold, and metal.
Dental crowns are long-lasting and can survive up to 25 years.
Dental veneers are the fancy option
Costs from £350 for composite, and £850 for porcelain
Dental veneers are a natural-looking option for chips on front teeth.
Whether you choose a composite or a porcelain veneer, they’ll do the same job: give your entire tooth a makeover and a facelift.
However, porcelain veneers last longer and are stain-resistant, whereas composite veneers chip and stain more easily (hence their lower cost).
Dental fillings for minor chips
Costs from £155
Dental fillings also use composite material to treat minor chips and make them appear smoother. This treatment is mostly effective for patients with chips in their molars, where one of the sharp cusps has broken off.
Don’t delay treatment
When it comes to a chipped tooth, the worst thing you can do is ignore the problem – but seeing as you’re here because you’ve Googled the issue, we can assume you’re interested in getting it sorted. Chipped teeth don’t go away, and the edges of your teeth will continue to wear down, making teeth appear even more uneven.
Neglecting the issue can also lead to bigger problems: cracks and fissures may develop, allowing bacteria to enter the tooth and cause decay or infection that may require more expensive, extensive treatments, or even a tooth extraction.
Our cosmetic dentists will take approximately 60 minutes to repair a chipped tooth. Book same-day chipped tooth repair in London here.
