What do you do if you bite down on a piece of hard candy and all of a sudden you feel a piece of your tooth break off? You take the piece of tooth out of your mouth and all of a sudden your tongue hits the spot and you feel the rough edge of the chipped tooth. If it’s a small chip, you may not feel a lot of pain. But if you have a really big Las Vegas chipped tooth, you may have quite a bit of pain right away.
If you find yourself in this position, you can give our Las Vegas dentist at Moore Family Dentistry a call at 702-791-1010 in Las Vegas or 702-254-6700 in Summerlin and schedule an emergency dental appointment to fix that Las Vegas chipped tooth. Our friendly dental staff will be happy to schedule a same day dental appointment for you so that Dr. Moore can take a look at your tooth and see what needs to be done to help you with the pain and put your tooth back together for you.
There are many ways to fix a chipped tooth, and Dr. Moore is an expert at figuring out what is best for each individual situation. Dental bonding is one way to make your chipped tooth look whole again. Bonding is a cosmetic dentistry technique that uses a tooth-colored resin to fill in the area where the piece of your tooth is missing. The nice thing about dental bonding is that the material used can be colored to match your own teeth. Dental veneers are another option. The wafer thin porcelain material can cover your tooth and fill in the empty spot so that nobody would ever know your tooth was broken off.
So if you have a Las Vegas chipped tooth, call the dental experts at Moore Family Dentistry to find out the best way to make your smile whole again.
