Causes
Teeth usually chip or crack from sports injuries, accidents, grinding or biting into something hard. Large old fillings and decay can also weaken a tooth so that a small force breaks it.
Do Not Wait
Yes. A cracked or chipped tooth may not hurt at first, but that does not mean it is safe to ignore. Cracks can let bacteria reach the inside of the tooth, and infections can start quickly. Early treatment also keeps a small chip from turning into a larger break that is harder and more costly to fix.
Regular checkups help catch small fractures and cracks before they become problems. For a closer look at symptoms, see cracked tooth pain and broken tooth pain.

Treatment Options
The repair depends on how much of the tooth is damaged and whether the nerve is involved. Our dentists explain each option so you can choose what fits your tooth, timeline and budget.
Tooth-colored material rebuilds small chips. See tooth-colored fillings.
Covers and protects a badly cracked or broken tooth. See metal-free crowns.
A thin shell that improves the look of a chipped front tooth.
Needed when a break exposes or damages the nerve. See root canal treatment.
Comparison
Small chips are often fixed with bonding in one visit, while larger breaks usually need a crown, and nerve damage needs a root canal first.
| Damage | Common repair | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Small chip in enamel | Bonding or filling | Often done in one visit |
| Larger chip on a front tooth | Bonding or veneer | Focus on natural appearance |
| Large break or deep crack | Crown | Protects the remaining tooth |
| Break exposing the nerve | Root canal plus crown | Prompt care relieves pain |
| Crack below the gum line | Possible extraction | Replacement options explained |

FAQ
It is urgent if it hurts, has sharp edges, exposes the inside of the tooth or followed an injury. Even a painless chip should be checked soon, because cracks can let bacteria in and lead to infection.
Often, yes. Small chips can usually be repaired with bonding or a filling in one visit. Larger breaks may need a temporary repair first and a crown afterward.
Front teeth are commonly repaired with tooth-colored bonding or a veneer so they look natural. If the break is large or the nerve is involved, a crown or root canal may be needed.
No. Tooth enamel does not grow back, so a chip or crack will not repair itself. Treatment protects the tooth from further damage and infection.
Keep it in milk or saliva and bring it to your appointment. In some cases the dentist can use it, and it helps show how the tooth broke.
Yes. We are open 7 days a week, including weekends, and walk-ins are welcome. Calling (713) 999-5328 first helps us have a room ready.
The cost depends on the repair needed, from bonding to a crown. We explain the price before treatment, accept most insurance (exclusions apply) and offer payment plans for patients without insurance.
