Why Prompt Repair Pays Off
1
Quicker Pain Relief
A break can expose the sensitive layers of the tooth, so heat, cold, and biting pressure sting. Sealing and restoring the tooth calms that quickly.
2
Lower Infection Risk
Bacteria can travel through a break and reach the nerve. Early treatment helps you avoid a deeper infection and more extensive work later.
3
Less Chance of Further Breakage
A weakened tooth tends to keep chipping or splitting. Treating it early usually means a simpler, less costly repair.
4
A Comfortable Bite and Confident Smile
Whether the tooth is a front incisor or a back molar, repair lets you eat, talk, and smile normally again.

FAQs About Broken Tooth Repair
Should I treat a broken tooth as an emergency?
Usually, yes. A break can leave nerves and inner tooth layers open to bacteria. If you have pain, a sharp edge, or bleeding, call us for a same-day visit.
What should I do in the first few minutes?
Rinse gently with warm water and keep any pieces of the tooth you can find. Hold a cold compress against your cheek to limit swelling, and avoid chewing on that side. Then call (512) 961-6200 to be seen as soon as possible.
How long will the repair take?
Bonding is often done in under an hour. Crowns usually take one to two visits. If the nerve is involved, a root canal adds time depending on the extent of the damage.
Will it hurt?
We numb the area for crowns and root canals, and bonding is typically comfortable without anesthesia. Most patients report little to no discomfort.
What will it cost, and can the tooth heal by itself?
Cost depends on the type of break and the treatment you need. Bonding is generally the most affordable, while crowns and root canals cost more. We offer a guaranteed payment plan to help with that. As for healing, enamel and dentin can’t regenerate, so a broken tooth won’t repair itself and needs professional care.
