Chipped Tooth Repair in Fairport, NY
A chipped tooth can happen in an instant, but the good news is that restoring it is just as quick and easy. At Spruce Grove Dental, we provide expert chipped tooth repair to restore your tooth's function and appearance.
Common Causes of a Chipped Tooth
Understanding how chips happen can help you avoid them in the future. Some of the most common causes include:
- Biting down on hard foods (like ice or candy)
- Facial injuries from sports or accidents
- Teeth grinding or clenching
- Decay or weakened enamel
No matter how it happened, Dr. Jonathan Adler and our team are ready to restore your smile.
What to Do If You Chip a Tooth
- Save Any Broken Pieces — If possible, collect and store them in milk or saliva.
- Rinse Your Mouth — Use warm water to keep the area clean.
- Stop Bleeding — Apply gentle pressure with gauze if needed.
- Reduce Swelling — Use a cold compress on the outside of your mouth.
- Call Us Immediately — Schedule a same-day appointment at Main Line: (585) 844-5523 or through our Contact Us page.
Your Repair Options at Spruce Grove Dental
We offer multiple solutions to restore chipped teeth based on the severity of the damage:
1. Bonding — A quick and affordable option for minor chips, bonding uses tooth-colored resin to rebuild the damaged area. The process is painless and takes just one visit.
2. Veneers — For more extensive chips or cosmetic concerns, veneers provide a durable, natural-looking solution. Learn more on our Cosmetic Dentistry page.
3. Crowns — When a chip compromises the structure of the tooth, a crown provides full coverage and restores strength. Explore our Restorative Dentistry services for additional information.
4. Dental Fillings — For chips in the back teeth, a durable filling can restore functionality while blending seamlessly with your natural teeth.
Why Repairing a Chipped Tooth Is Important
Even a small chip can lead to bigger issues if left untreated: increased sensitivity to hot or cold foods, risk of further cracking or decay, discomfort or difficulty chewing, and a negative impact on your smile's appearance. Addressing the problem early prevents complications and keeps your smile healthy.
What to Expect During Your Repair
- Evaluation — Dr. Adler will examine your tooth and discuss the best treatment option for your situation.
- Treatment — Whether it's bonding, a crown, or another solution, your repair will be completed with precision and care.
- Aftercare Guidance — We'll provide tips to protect your repaired tooth and prevent future chips.

“Awesome office! Awesome dentist! Awesome staff!”
“I switched dental providers because of insurance policy needs and I am so incredibly happy!... Dr. Adler did a very comprehensive evaluation of my teeth ... never before completed to that level...and he spotted areas of concern that my former dentist never caught. I am almost 79 years old and I have never experienced a dentist of his competence and skill! I'd recommend him to everyone... young and old!!”
