COSMETIC DENTISTRY IN TACOMA & LAKEWOOD
Cosmetic Tooth Repair
Because accidents happen to good teeth
A chipped front tooth. A crack you can suddenly feel with your tongue. An edge that’s worn down enough that your smile just doesn’t look quite the same anymore.
Fortunately, damaged doesn’t always mean doomed.
At Plancich Dental, we offer cosmetic tooth repair in Tacoma and Lakewood to restore both the way damaged teeth look and the way they function.
How do you repair a chipped or broken tooth?
That depends on what happened to it.
Small chips may only need dental bonding. More significant damage could be better repaired with a porcelain veneer, onlay, or crown. And if a crack extends deeper into the tooth, we may need to address what’s happening inside before worrying about how it looks outside.
We’ll recommend the most conservative treatment that gives your tooth the protection it needs.
Can you make the repair look natural?
That’s the plan.
Color matters, but so does shape, translucency, texture, proportion, and the way the repaired tooth sits beside its neighbors.
The best cosmetic repair shouldn’t make people think, “Nice dental work.”
It should make them think, “Nice smile.”
What if I just chipped my tooth?
Give us a call.
Even a chip that seems mostly cosmetic can expose or weaken part of the tooth. We’ll help determine how quickly you need to be seen and what your repair options are!
