Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

My front tooth got chipped away before two days. I am so nervous about it. How to recover my tooth?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern. It depends upon the vitality of the tooth. If your tooth is vital and if there is no associated pain, then it can be restored with a simple composite filling. In case, if there is a loss of vitality, you can treat it by a root canal treatment. Please mention whether you have pain or sensitivity towards hot, cold, or sweet substances. If you want to save the tooth immediately, it is best to do restoration in the tooth. Please answer the question, so that I can provide you a better possible treatment plan and prognosis.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
