Chipped a Tooth? in Camarillo, CA

The Type of Issues an Endodontist Treats

Do you feel any pain? After chipping a tooth, you may not be in pain or uncomfortable. It really depends on the extent of the chip, where your tooth was chipped, and which tooth was damaged. Some people, for example, lightly chip a tooth when eating something overly hard or crunchy. If it is small, the chip may go unnoticed until you brush and floss your teeth. If you are in pain, you need to call our dental office in Camarillo immediately. Pain is your body’s way of alerting you to a problem, and by restoring your tooth, we can prevent further damage and infections.

Are you bleeding?

We encourage you to visit our dentist practice immediately if you notice that your tooth has become chipped and you are also bleeding. This could be an indication that you have suffered more dental damage than you are currently aware of. Rinse your mouth out with warm salt water, and if the bleeding persists, come on in.

Was it your tooth or your child’s?

As a family dentist serving the Camarillo area, we treat generations of families. We need to know the age of the person who suffered damage because this will directly influence our treatment recommendations. Children tend to be more sensitive to discomfort, so it is wise to have any damage restored on the same day as the accident.

Steps to Take After Chipping a Tooth

If you have ever wondered, “What should I do if I chip my tooth?” this information is good to keep in your back pocket. We always welcome your calls, questions, and visits to our dental office in Camarillo. This guide should be a reference point, but ultimately, you should still visit the dentist.

Step #1

Rinse your mouth with warm saltwater. This will help remove debris, any surface blood, and reduce the chance of developing an infection.

Step #2

Place a piece of gauze or a cool rag in your mouth and press on the area that is bleeding. Applying light pressure may also help ease any discomfort being caused by the tooth being chipped and the dentin being exposed. As a family dentist that serves residents of Camarillo and surrounding areas, we have found this to be particularly useful for helping our young patients take their mind off their discomfort.

Step #3

You can purchase dental cement at many drugstores and use it to temporarily cover the damaged tooth. As a cosmetic dentist, we prefer to simply treat your tooth and restore it immediately. However, if you are traveling, have a busy day at work, or simply cannot find the time to come in, this is a useful temporary solution. Just be sure to visit Smile Spa Camarillo Dentistry the next day.

Step #4

Call our cosmetic dental services office at [](tel:+1-818-699-9377)[](tel:+1-818-699-9377)805-243-9588 and schedule an appointment to be seen as soon as possible. We will do our best to work around your schedule so you can have your tooth restored immediately.

As a Cosmetic Dentist, We Have Several Ways to Restore a Chipped Tooth, Including:

Dental bonding.

We regularly use dental bonding to restore chipped teeth in children. This is the fastest way to do so because we can complete the process in one visit. As a cosmetic dentist, we apply tooth-colored bonding material to the damaged tooth, shape, and harden it for a natural-looking restoration. At Smile Spa Camarillo Dentistry we can also use dental bonding when treating adults. However, the bonding material is generally not as long-lasting as a veneer or dental crown.

Dental veneers.

Many of the adults who visit our general dentist office prefer to repair their teeth using dental veneers. A veneer can be used to restore a chipped tooth, cover dark stains, close gaps in between teeth, and more. This makes veneers an incredibly popular option among our patients.

Dental crowns and bridges.

If you have lost a tooth in addition to damaging one, we can use the solutions above to restore the damage and then work on replacing your missing tooth. We can do so using dental crowns and bridges or dental implants. Both solutions will restore the appearance and functionality of your smile.

Improve your smile.

When visiting us for a chipped tooth, let us know if you would also like to improve your smile. We can offer you a quick teeth whitening treatment that will brighten your smile and improve your self-confidence. When combined with dental restorations, this is an excellent way to enhance your appearance.

Call us.

If you are wondering, “What should I do if I chip my tooth?” the best thing to remember is to call our our practice. At Smile Spa Camarillo Dentistry we always try to treat you right away so you do not experience unnecessary discomfort. Simultaneously, we will try everything in our power to restore your tooth in a way that is both beautiful and natural-looking. To schedule an appointment, call [](tel:+1-818-699-9377)805-243-9588.

I don’t normally write reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience with this office. I had a canine tooth root canal fall out in the middle of the night. I called them and they were able to get me in the very next morning.The front desk team, Christina and Kristine, were both incredibly nice and easy to work with. The office itself is beautiful and feels like a high-end, professional establishment. The treatment rooms face the Camarillo airport, offering great views of planes taking off and landing.Nestor and Luz in the back kept me informed every step of the way and made sure I was as comfortable as possible. Dr. Shawn is one of the best dentists I’ve ever worked with — you can clearly tell how passionate he is about his work, and it shows in the results.I received a bone graft and had a broken wisdom tooth extracted. I was out of there in just 45 minutes with no pain, my prescriptions already waiting at the pharmacy, and a clear treatment plan moving forward.I highly recommend this office to anyone!

Dr Shawn is genuinely one of the best doctors ive had. He did a great job with my wisdom teeth removal and the healing is going well. I was extremely anxious/in a panic but he was able to ease my nerves and it overall went very well. Cannot speak highly enough of him! (Even while i was in the waiting room another patient was telling me how wonderful he is and that im in great hands) 10/10 recommend!

I recently saw Dr. Shawn at the Smile Spa Camarillo and cannot recommend them enough. Dr. Shawn and the whole staff was attentive, knowledgable, detailed, and claiming throughout the whole process. I was referred to them by a mutual friend after not being satisfy with my current dentist, where I spent a lot of money and hassle with getting a crown just to need the tooth extracted after 9 months because of a missed fracture. I reached out to Smile Spa and Dr. Shawn was able to see me within a day. During my visit, they performed multiple test and with advanced technology (including a CT scan of my teeth) was able to identify the problem and throughly explained the treatment plan. The tooth was extracted the same day. It was as smooth and painless a dental procedure can be. Dr. Shawn and the team even followed up through text the next day to see how I was doing. Thank you Dr. Shawn and the Smile Spa team!

Dr Nguyen even called me a couple days later to see how I was feeling and to call him at any hour with any concerns! I look forward to completing the implant!

Had the opportunity to be a patient at the office for a consultation. The moment I walked through the door the front staff was extremely welcoming. X-rays were taken by the assistant who were extremely positive and conversational. Both Dr. Joelle and Dr. Shawn came in and did the consultation with me. They explained some of my options on my concerns while giving me more insight on what the procedure entailed. It was such an amazing experience. I’m glad to have found a new dental home. Already looking forward to coming back for the treatments they recommended
