REBONDING FRACTURED TOOTH FRAGMENTS
Composite bonding gives us the ability to reglue pieces of fractured teeth in some situations.
Can a piece of fractured tooth be reglued?
Yes! Sometimes, if there is enough sound tooth remaining, and if the fractured piece of tooth is not damaged, then the fragment can be reglued using composite bonding. The aesthetics of rebonding a natural piece of tooth are always better than anything dentist made. So if you fracture a tooth, ALWAYS try and save the pieces, and bring them with you to your emergency appointment. The Composite & Bonding
page outlines the principle behind the technique as well as information on the advantages, challenges and longevity.
