Is there any treatment for a half broken front teeth ?

hello, yes there are many treatment options available, depending on history of trauma, color change of tooth and amount of tooth structure fractured..
if ur tooth is recently traumatised and there is no clinical pulp exposure- composite restoration will rebuild the tooth to its original size and color.
if ur tooth was traumatised in past that leads it tooth discoloration and there is pulp exposure- then the root canal treatment of the involved tooth is done first later crown -All ceramic/ PFM is given to rebuild tooth to original size and color.and If your tooth radiograph shows complete calcification of canal with no periapical pathology then Crown can be given directly to the tooth..
dont worry.. treatment options are plenty.. and ur clinical and radiographic- IOPA examination will decide course of treatment.. and you will soon have perfect smile..
take care.. and maintain your oral hygiene..

Hello there,

Thanks for your query.


Trauma to a tooth will lead to pulp tissue death gradually,even after treatment.

So i would suggest you in your case tooth is already half broken,you should visit an endodontist at the earliest and get the root canal treatment done of the same tooth and crown of the same tooth after treatment.
This is the best option of treatment in your case.

Hope this will be helpful.
Take care.

Hi ,
Thanks for asking query ,
Firstly please specify the age it helps in giving treatment advice.
There are many treatment options available but they will depend upon amount of tooth distructed,tooth respond to sensitivity change , tooth colour change.
In your case it seems that your having fracture involving enamel , dentin and pulp ,you should go to dentist and have the xray done and go for rct followed by creamic crown prosthesis.

Hi
Welcome to HCM
I would like to tell you that treatment for half broken front teeth depends on its clinical evaluation.
If it does not involves pulp then it can be treated with composite filling.But if pulp is involved then you need to go for root canal treatment followed by capping.
Consult your dentist for further treatment.

Take Care

Hello there ,

Thanks for writing your query,

Half broken teeth needs to be evaluated by x ray examination and vitality of the tooth needs to be checked.

If the tooth is nonvital , it needs to be treated by a root canal procedure so please consider getting the treatment done by consulting a dentist.

Root canal procedure is done by removing the nerve tissue and the root canals are cleaned,shaped and filled with permanent restorative material.

Once the treatment is completed , the fractured tooth can be restored by a post and core preparation with a prosthetic crown coverage.


i hope this helps ,

take care.

Hi,

Thanks for asking the query,

According to your clincal symptoms i would suggest you to visit the Dentist and get the checkup done, take an x-ray of the tooth, depending upon the x-ray you can go for composite restoration of the tooth or if the infection or pain can go for root canal treatment followed by prosthetic crown placement.
Maintain a good oral hygiene.
Use antiseptic mouthwash gargles twice daily.

Hope this helps out.

HI MALLIKARJUN,
Thanks for writing in.
To make the broken tooth equal to other tooth,the broken tooth has to be evaluated clinically as well as radiologically.
This will help to rule out any pulpal or periapical involvement if occurred.
If so,root canal treatment has to be done prior to recontouring the broken crown of tooth.
The broken crown has to be corrected using porcelain crown/veneering/composite restoration depending on the severity of involvement of fracture.
Please do visit your dentist for further reference.
Take care.

hello mallikarjun,
yes treatment is possible for half broken tooth.as you said,you have half broken tooth,it means it includes the damage og enamel,dentin and pulp.
so i will suggest you please go to an endodontics and go for root canal treatment of the same tooth followed by crown placement.for front teeth i will suggest you go for ceramic crown.because ceramic crown looks like tooth,so it is good for esthetic purpose.after getting this treatment your tooth will look as it was earlier.and please follow all the given instructions properly.

Hello and Welcome to HCM,
Thanks for writing to us.
It depends on where in the tooth it was fractured. If the pulp is exposed (a small dot that looks like a drop of pink blood) then you will likely lose the tooth. Many time we have to do root canals then. If the pulp is not exposed then the tooth can be reconstructed to look almost like new with a procedure very similar to putting on 'caps'.
Either way you need to be seen by a dentist in a relatively short amount of time. If the tooth is causing you pain you can buy over-the-counter tooth sealant until you can be seen by a dentist which will help.
Hope this helps you.
Wishing you good health...
Regards.

Hi,
The treatment for your problem is Root canal treatment of the tooth followed by a crown over the tooth.

sure,there is a treatment for front broken teeth,we can do root canal treatment, or post and core ,pateient will have his previous look after the treatment

Its better to go for RCT and ceramic cap since its half broken tooth.If you just go for composite or cap now,you may have pain later.
take care

hello,

if there is no color change in the broken teeth, then you can go for composite buildup or ceramic capping. if there is color change (pulp ha become non vital) then go for a RCT then cap it. happy smile!!

Hi, you can go for a composite restoration or a porcelain or ceramic crown to restore the lost potion of the broken tooth. All these procedures will make your tooth look like before.Take care!
