I had a composite filling which broke off what can i do?
Q. Dr. Moore, A year ago, I had a composite filling put into my front tooth. A few days ago, the bottom part of the tooth broke off in two places and the composite filling from the front remaining part to the top has come out completely; leaving only a thin part of my real tooth behind. Is this tooth salvagable for a crown?
A. Without seeing you I can’t tell for sure but it is usual for a there to be still enough tooth for a crown even after a breakage.
