Fractured-Cracked-Tooth in Indianapolis

Cracked/Fractured Tooth

Have you suffered a cracked tooth? At our office, we offer treatments
based on the condition of your tooth and the type of crack. If your
crack is too deep, we can schedule an emergency appointment so that you
get immediate treatment. Treatment will depend on the type of crack.

Treatments for a cracked tooth

Composite resin. This is suitable for small cracks that only affect
the enamel.

Dental Crowns. Dental crowns cover the top part of the tooth and can
be used to cover cracks that have not yet reached the gum line.

Root canal. A root canal is a procedure done to save the tooth if the
crack has reached the pulp (nerves and tissues).

Tooth Extraction. Sometimes it becomes hard to save the tooth,
especially if the nerves and root are severely damaged. In this case, we
do an extraction.

Cracks should not be ignored. If you notice a crack on your tooth,
call us for an examination. Seeking early treatment is the best way of
saving your tooth. Don’t hesitate to call us.
