A chipped tooth occurs when a piece of the hard outer enamel breaks away, while a cracked or fractured tooth involves a deeper split that can extend toward the root. The Cleveland Clinic explains that common causes include sports injuries, falls, biting hard foods or ice, and grinding, and that treatment can range from simple polishing to bonding, veneers, crowns, or a root canal depending on severity. The American Dental Association notes that rinsing with warm water, applying a cold compress, and seeing a dentist promptly gives the best chance of a simple, affordable repair.
Many first-time patients aren’t sure what the visit itself involves, so here’s a quick rundown: after your exam and X-ray confirm the extent of the damage, we’ll discuss which repair fits best. For bonding, we numb the area only if needed, shape the composite resin directly onto the tooth, and harden it with a curing light — often done in 30 to 60 minutes. A crown typically requires two visits: one to prepare the tooth and take an impression, and a second to place the finished crown once it’s back from the lab. Mild sensitivity for a few days after treatment is normal and typically fades on its own.
As one of the county’s largest communities, we see a wide range of situations that call for repair, including:
Because Glen Burnie is home to such a wide range of patients — from young families to longtime retirees — we see the full spectrum of repair needs. Bonding generally works well when a chip is caught early or a small existing repair needs replacing. When a fracture has weakened a large portion of the tooth, a crown is often the more durable choice. If the crack has reached the inner nerve and caused infection or persistent pain, a root canal is typically needed first. Your consultation will include an honest discussion of which option best matches your situation.
Cost depends on which repair option your tooth needs. Our team verifies your insurance benefits before treatment starts, and patients without coverage can ask about our in-house membership plan for reduced pricing.

Once a tooth has been bonded or crowned, protecting it becomes just as important as the repair itself. Avoid chewing on ice, hard candy, popcorn kernels, or pens, and if grinding played a role in the original damage, ask us about a nightguard to wear at night. Athletes of any age should consider a properly fitted mouthguard for contact sports — it’s one of the simplest ways to prevent a return trip to our office. Keeping up with routine cleanings also lets us catch early wear on a repair before it turns into a bigger problem.
