What to Do When Your Child Breaks a Front Tooth: Exploring Options

by  CFAD Blog Editor

As parents, it’s natural to feel concerned when our children experience pain or distress. One of the most heart-wrenching moments can be when a child breaks a front tooth, leading to worry and uncertainty. A significant concern for children with broken front teeth is feeling self-conscious about their appearance. The great news is that there are plenty of options available to fix the tooth and restore your child’s bright smile. Thanks to modern dental techniques and technology, your child doesn’t have to feel self-conscious or worry about losing their tooth.

At our office, we often encounter situations where young kids, especially spirited little boys, have had accidents resulting in broken front teeth. Despite the initial shock, we can get quite creative in saving these teeth because it’s crucial to preserve the tooth to maintain bone health, even if a long-term solution like an implant might be considered down the road.

Let’s take a look at a few Before & After examples of kiddos who’ve taken a tumble:

These are just a few examples of how we can help when a child breaks a front tooth. Our goal is not just to fix the tooth but also to alleviate any concerns and help your child regain their confidence. Remember, accidents happen, but with the right dental care, your child’s smile can shine brightly once again. If you ever find yourself in such a situation, don’t hesitate to reach out to us for compassionate and expert dental care.

Peter Hurley Headshot Intensive

by  CFAD Blog Editor

I had an incredible weekend with some of my dental photography buddies at Peter Hurley’s Headshot Intensive. One of my favorite parts of cosmetic dentistry has been learning how to photograph it. Peter taught us some new lighting techniques and some ways to get genuine smiles from our patients. I even got a chance to have my own headshots taken from the master himself! I’m excited to bring these new techniques back to the office so that we can get even better portraits of our patients!
