No one likes the idea of having multiple broken teeth in their mouth. Many people with broken teeth are self conscious when they speak and laugh, and it can cause some complications that would make anyone happy.
There are many people who go to a dental professional to find out what can be done about their broken teeth. Hudson residents should be made aware that a dental professional can correct broken or chipped teeth, but there is not only one way of fixing them.
A dental professional will have to access a patient’s mouth to determine what would be the best course of action to fix the broken teeth that they are having issues with.
Dental Fillings
Dental fillings are one method of correcting some broken teeth. Hudson residents might be under the impression that dental fillings are used for fixing cavities and tooth decay, but they are also effective at correcting a broken tooth.
Dental fillings have come a long way than the metal fillings that were commonly used back in the day. Many of them are made from a material that looks very close to a real tooth. Many people from a distance will not be able to tell that a patient has even gotten a dental filling.
Dental Veneers
Dental veneers are a popular option for correcting broken front teeth, specifically large chips. They are like a shell or casing that goes on top of existing broken teeth. Hudson residents should know that like modern dental fillings, dental veneers are designed to look like real teeth.
Dental veneers are made from porcelain or a composite resin material, which will last for many years to come without a person having any issues. Veneers can be stained or color matched to someone’s current teeth, so it is harder for people to tell that any type of dental work was done. Dental veneers can look surprisingly bright when compared to someone who has staining done to them by years of specific foods such as tea or coffee.
