Is a Broken Tooth a Dental Emergency?
Often, yes.. A chipped or cracked tooth may not hurt right away, but delaying treatment can allow the damage to worsen. Left untreated, it can lead to infection, nerve damage, or even tooth loss. Early care often helps preserve your natural tooth and avoid more complex treatment.
If your tooth just broke or you’re in pain, we recommend calling as soon as possible. Same-day appointments may be available.
Treatment Options for Chipped or Broken Teeth
Treatment depends on the severity of the damage and may include:
Dental bonding – for small chips
Dental crowns – to protect and restore damaged teeth
Root canal + crown – if the nerve is affected
Extraction – only when the tooth cannot be saved
Our priority is always the most conservative option to protect your smile and long-term oral health.
Not All Dental Crowns Are the Same
Most patients assume a crown is “just a cap.” In reality, how a crown is designed, fitted, and placed determines how long it lasts - and how comfortable it feels.
At Cris Dental, we focus on details that matter:
-
A poorly fitted crown can lead to discomfort, bite issues, or decay underneath.
We take time during preparation to ensure precise margins, proper spacing, and an exact fit. This attention to detail helps prevent future issues like sensitivity, food trapping, or crown failure, and is a major reason our crowns last longer.
-
A crown that looks good but feels “off” can cause jaw pain, headaches, or uneven wear.
Before final placement, we carefully evaluate how your teeth come together when you bite and chew. Small adjustments at this stage make a big difference in comfort and long-term function, especially for back teeth that handle the most pressure.
-
While we don’t offer same-day crowns, we do offer same-day care when you need it most.
If you break a tooth or need a crown, we can often get you in the same day to evaluate and prepare the tooth. Your crown is then custom-made by a dental lab for optimal strength, fit, and longevity, without rushing the process.
This approach allows us to focus on quality while still getting you treated faster than most dental offices.
-
Crowns should blend in seamlessly with your surrounding teeth.
We work closely with a trusted dental lab to match shape, color, and translucency so your crown looks natural, not bulky or artificial. Lab-fabricated crowns allow for more customization and better aesthetics than one-visit, machine-made options.
The goal isn’t just fixing today’s problem, it’s making sure you don’t have to deal with this tooth again.
Real Results. Seamless Smiles.
Every dental crown we place is carefully designed to match the shape, color, and contour of your natural teeth.
Whether you’re repairing a cracked tooth, replacing an old failing crown, or restoring a tooth after a root canal, our goal is simple: your smile should look healthy, not “worked on.”
Our crowns are crafted for durability, precision fit, and long-term comfort so you can chew, smile, and speak with confidence again.

FAQs
If you’re experiencing tooth pain when biting, sensitivity to hot or cold, a cracked or broken tooth, or have a large filling that keeps failing, a crown may be recommended. That said, not every tooth needs a crown. During your visit, we’ll examine the tooth and explain your options clearly, no pressure.
How do I know if I need a crown?
1
Most patients are surprised by how comfortable the process is. We use gentle techniques and local anesthesia to keep you comfortable during treatment. If you’re nervous or sensitive to dental procedures, let us know — your comfort is always a priority.

We don’t offer same-day crowns, but we do offer same-day care when possible.
If you need a crown due to a cracked or painful tooth, we can often see you quickly to evaluate and prepare the tooth. Your crown is then custom-made by a dental lab for optimal fit, strength, and longevity. This approach allows us to focus on quality and long-term results—without rushing the process.
Do you offer same-day dental crowns?

That’s very common. Many patients come in unsure whether they’ve cracked a tooth or if an old crown is failing. We’ll evaluate the area, identify the cause of the discomfort, and walk you through the best next steps — even if a crown isn’t needed.

With proper care, a well-placed crown can last many years. Longevity depends on factors like bite alignment, oral hygiene, and the quality of placement. Our goal is to create a crown that feels natural and protects your tooth long-term.
