LILLYBROOK DENTAL

What to do when you have a broken tooth or filling

A tooth that has been knocked out may be able to be reinserted if it has been handled properly – that is, picked up by the crown, rinsed gently, replaced into the socket and held in place, or placed in a small cup of milk or the patient’s saliva, and then getting to the dentist for treatment as soon as possible.

For a tooth pushed out of alignment the dentist may re-position and stabilise it.

A tooth that is broken, cracked or fractured needs immediate emergency dental treatment if the tooth is to be saved. Interim measures include: gently rinsing your mouth with warm water; apply a cold compress to minimise swelling; and take paracetamol to relieve pain. A digital x-ray and thorough exam will show whether the tooth can be saved.

LILLYBROOK DENTAL

Is a broken tooth or filling avoidable?

At Lillybrook Dental, our focus is on preventive care. We educate our patients to understand that many dental issues are avoidable, including broken teeth or fillings. How? By maintaining a regular oral hygiene regime, including regular visits to the dentist, which can help identify issues well before they arise and become costly, painful dental problems.

 

The key message here? Regular check-ups with your dentist and good oral hygiene routine will go a long way to keeping your mouth and teeth healthy, strong and free from decay.

Dental trauma occurring through sport can be avoided by using a custom fitted mouthguard made by Lillybrook Dental.

White Fillings

White fillings are a restorative dental treatment used to treat dental cavities or dental caries. If you have a cracked or decayed tooth, a white filling, also referred to as a composite filling is an affordable common dental treatment. The dentists at Lillybrook Dental will understand your specific needs and advise which is the most ideal tooth filling material for you.


The need for a dental filling can be easily overlooked by patients until a small issue becomes a more costly problem to repair. Before acting, many people accept discomfort when brushing or painful sensitivity when drinking hot or cold liquids. These are signs it’s time to speak with your dentist and gain a better understanding of what you might need.

While tooth fillings address cavities, they can also be preventive, halting decay and damage before they advance further. A dental filling can also relieve the pain associated with decay.

If tooth decay or damage has progressed too far for a white filling – when the damage has reached the nerve – it may be necessary for you to have root canal treatment and potentially, a crown.

LILLYBROOK DENTAL

Silver vs. white fillings: what’s the difference?

Lillybrook Dental only uses the highest quality composite filling material available for all white fillings. Unlike silver (metal) fillings, white tooth fillings:

 

  • Blend more naturally with other teeth because they are made from biocompatible materials which resemble the colour of teeth
  • Help support tooth structure by bonding to the tooth, which reduces the likelihood of breakage and the impacts of variations in temperature.


A key difference between silver and white fillings is the aesthetic, with white tooth fillings being tooth coloured, allowing them to blend in with the rest of the tooth. Tooth coloured fillings also have the ability to flex along with the tooth, thereby reducing the chances of tooth fracture.
If you have questions or concerns about white fillings and their suitability for your needs, just ask when you visit us.

Any invasive or surgical procedure has risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner. Individual results can vary.

Testimonials

I’ve been to many different dentists over the years, and I would have to say that this is up there with the best! The staff are so professional, and yet so very friendly. The dentist himself, was also very friendly and did such a great job. I would highly recommend this dental surgery

Jodie

I can’t recommend Dr Raj and the team at Lillybrook Dental enough! I was 35 weeks pregnant and developed a terrible toothache (the worst timing!), they fit me in quickly and did everything they could to save the tooth, giving me all options and no pressure. I ended up needing a root canal and crown and was very upset and worried about the pain, they reassured me and despite the outcome for my tooth I had a great experience. The crown has been fitted and I am so happy with the end product. Highly recommend!

Ashley

Having been to various practices over time, and addressing issues with a “patch-up” approach, it was time to consult with a Dentist who could advise on a treatment plan that would provide longterm results. A friend recommended Lillybrook Dental. After a very thorough initial appointment Dr Raj put together a staged treatment plan to restore my teeth to their former glory. Six months later, thanks to Dr Raj and his team, I have my smile back. Most importantly I can eat the food I want without any fear of causing days of pain to my teeth or gums. I am so glad I put my trust in Lillybrook Dental. Thanks!

Steve

From the moment I walked in until the moment I left I felt very cared for by all of the staff I encountered. Everything was explained in detail as to what my options were and what the best choice would be for my treatmemt. Extremely accommodating and so kind, I felt completely at ease. With payment options such as Afterpay, Zippay and Openpay available, making it much more comfortable when it comes time to pay the bill.

Kerrie

I am a very anxious patient and Dr Raji is very calming and gentle in her care with me. She is also very patient with me and would highly recommend coming to Lillybrook Dental Surgery as the whole crew is lovely !

Hayley

Dr Raj and his team are always gentle, professional and very efficient. My husband and I have both had extractions done and Raj is so proficient at this.

The team are so kind and assuring as well which helps you feel calm. We totally recommend them for all your family dental care.

Melissa

I have nothing put praise for the friendliness of Ena on the front desk she is just the right person for the job. Then we have Dr Raj who has been very kind and gentle with doing any dental work on my teeth. He explains every bit of work that needs to be done in layman terms which is great and his dental nurse is very caring.


Thanks for the great experience and will continue visiting your Surgery .
