Tooth defects cannot be ignored, this treatment is effective

Tooth chipping is actually a problem that many people may encounter. Most people may have chipped teeth or even fall out if they are not careful when eating. Some teeth are chipped due to external impact, but many people do not pay too much attention to this problem, which will cause their teeth to become more seriously chipped or even fall out, or suffer from gingivitis, etc. This is already very serious. You must go to the hospital for corresponding treatment according to the severity of your tooth chipping. Only active treatment can repair the teeth faster.

If a tooth is chipped, the patient should consult a dentist immediately to determine whether treatment is needed. The dentist will usually examine the damaged area and may even ask the patient to take an x-ray. It is worth noting that if a tooth is completely lost due to an impact, you should take the lost tooth to a dentist as soon as possible. The tooth can be "replanted" back to its original position.

If the tooth defect is relatively minor, you need to change your brushing method and do desensitization treatment.

For moderate tooth defects, tooth restoration is required. For small defects, filling can be used for restoration. The materials used for filling mainly include glass ionomer, silver-mercury alloy and light-cured resin. If the defect area is too large to be repaired by filling, it can be repaired by making a restoration, which mainly includes full crowns, inlays and partial crowns. Doctors will adopt different restorative treatments according to the degree of tooth loss.

If the tooth is severely damaged, endodontic treatment may be required.

Patients are advised to go to a regular hospital for treatment. The basic principle for diagnosing and treating missing teeth is "simplifying treatment". After communicating and negotiating with the doctor, not only can the complexity of treatment be reduced, but the chewing function can also be effectively restored more quickly and the oral appearance can be reconstructed.
