Hello,
about a week ago, while eating, I accidentally bit down on a fork and chipped a little off the lower right corner of my upper central incisor. It was slightly visible, so today I went to the dentist, who ground down the sharp edge. Now, however, it has become even more visible and bothers me more and more. I would like to know whether it is possible to build the tooth up so that it looks the way it did before the injury? It is a very small area and I am afraid that after the procedure the added part might fall off...
What would the approximate price of the procedure be?
Thank you
Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:
Dear Sir/Madam!
The missing piece of the tooth can be built up with composite material. The treatment provides a complete aesthetic restoration. Over time, the built-up part may become discolored and may also fall off; these materials do not withstand loads as high as enamel does. If restoration in this way is not possible or is poor, the defect can be corrected with a dental veneer. Price:
- 65 EUR (composite build-up)
- 350 EUR (aesthetic veneer)
Have a nice day!
