Tooth Bonding Recovery for Cracked Teeth: Aftercare & Sensitivity Guide
Finding a sudden crack in a front tooth usually sends people into a bit of a panic. You wonder whether the whole tooth is about to snap off during breakfast, and whether fixing it is going to put you out of action for days.
At Envy Smile in London, repairing a cracked tooth with composite bonding costs between £150 and £250 per tooth. That is roughly a quarter of the price of a porcelain crown, which can easily set you back £700 to £1,000 in private London practices.
The recovery process itself is very straightforward:
No time off work is required. Because we do not cut into your gum tissue or shave down your healthy tooth enamel, there is no surgical healing phase. You can leave our Shepherd’s Bush clinic and return to your desk immediately.
Here is what you might feel over the next two days:
– Your tooth might grumble a bit when you drink cold tap water tomorrow. That’s just the inner nerve recovering from having dental instruments buzzing near it, and the sensation usually disappears by Friday. If we numbed your gum, wait until that rubbery feeling wears off before eating lunch so you don’t chew your own lip.
