We’ll Help Save Your Broken Tooth

annall • September 1, 2020

A broken tooth is a fairly common dental emergency. It’s also one that needs to be fixed ASAP to avoid injuring your mouth on a jagged edge. In addition to this immediate concern, bacteria can get inside your tooth through a break – causing an infection that can make you sick and cause you to lose your tooth.

Check out our infographic to see what you should do if you break a tooth. The good news is, we may be able to repair your broken tooth in a single visit with a CEREC same-day crown. We don’t have crowns made at an outside lab, as most dental practices do. Instead we use our CEREC system to produce crowns right in our office. There’s no need for a second visit or a temporary crown.

If you’ve broken your tooth and need an appointment in Columbia, SC, call Total Dental Care of South Carolina at 803-272-4162.
