Repair Options for a Broken Tooth
Care That Fits Your Schedule
Same-Day Help
If a tooth broke this morning, call right away. In most cases, we can see you that same day so you aren’t left hurting.
After-Hours Visits
Teeth break at all hours. If you can only come in after 5 p.m., tell us and we’ll do our best to find a spot.
Weekend Care
Fractured teeth are treated on weekends, too, so help is available whenever the accident happens.
What You Gain by Acting Fast
1
Less Pain and Sensitivity
When a break reveals the tender layers inside, heat, cold, and chewing pressure can hurt. Repair covers the area and brings relief.
2
Lower Infection Risk
Cracks and exposed areas let bacteria reach the nerve. Quick treatment protects the tooth and can spare you a root canal or extraction later.
3
Less Chance of a Worse Break
Left alone, a broken tooth can split further or crumble, which makes the fix harder and pricier. Early care is nearly always simpler.
4
A Smile and Bite You Can Rely On
Front tooth or molar, repair brings back the shape and strength you need to eat, talk, and smile normally.

Broken Tooth Repair FAQs for Wells Branch Patients
Is a broken tooth an emergency?
In most cases, yes. A break can open the door for bacteria and cause infection or more damage. If you have pain, a sharp edge, or bleeding, call us at (512) 961-6200 for a same-day visit.
What should I do right after a tooth breaks?
Rinse with warm water, keep any fragments you can find, and hold a cold compress against your cheek if it’s swelling. Chew on the other side and call us as soon as you can.
How long will the repair take?
Bonding often takes under an hour in one appointment. Crowns usually need one or two visits, and cases that involve a root canal may take longer depending on the damage.
Will it hurt?
We numb the area for anything that might be uncomfortable, including crowns and root canals. Bonding generally needs no anesthesia, and most patients report little to no discomfort.
How much does it cost, and can it heal on its own?
Cost depends on how bad the break is and which treatment you need. Bonding is usually the most affordable, while crowns and root canals cost more. As for healing, no: enamel and dentin can’t regenerate, so a broken tooth always needs professional care. We can talk through payment options at your visit.
