What is Involved in a Fractured Front Tooth Build-Up?

A fractured front tooth build-up is a dental procedure that involves reconstructing a damaged or broken front tooth. The process typically includes cleaning the fractured area, applying a bonding material, and shaping it to match the natural contours of the tooth. The material used is designed to mimic the appearance of natural tooth enamel, making the restoration blend seamlessly with your smile.

During the fractured front tooth build-up procedure, your dentist will carefully assess the damage and clean the fractured area. A high-quality composite material is then applied in layers to build up the tooth. The material is shaped to match the original contour of the tooth, providing both a natural look and strength. After shaping, the material is hardened, and the tooth is polished to restore its smooth finish. This procedure is quick, effective, and can be done in a single visit, providing an immediate solution to a damaged front tooth.
