Teeth are they indestructible or not? Well even with the best dental hygiene it happens. A common problem many people come across, but what to do next. One should never overlook a cracked tooth no matter how small it may be, in order to maintain great oral care. Often chipped teeth or worn teeth can be restored to health, function and beauty with a variety of bonding techniques. White plastic “composite” comes in a variety of shades that allow us to match most teeth colors. It can be sculpted and polished to look just like your natural tooth. In certain circumstances, a porcelain veneer or porcelain crown is a better way to restore the severely decayed or broken tooth. Porcelain is stronger and more stain-resistant than composite and will maintain its’ beautiful appearance longer.

As always make sure that you see a dentist who has experience with this type of procedure and takes the time to explain the treatment plan. Dr. McElhinney’s dental practice located in Reno can go over which treatment would be best for you. Please don’t hesitate to contact Dr. McElhinney’s office to set up an appointment his dental staff is very knowledgeable and professional.
