A chipped or fractured tooth can affect both your confidence and your bite, and leaving it untreated risks further breakage or sensitivity. Dr. Mitzi Morris offers several repair options — including dental bonding, porcelain veneers, and ceramic crowns — matched to the size and location of the chip, your bite forces, and your aesthetic goals. Most minor to moderate chips can be repaired in a single visit to the Roswell practice, restoring both the look and the structural integrity of the tooth.

In the majority of cases, yes. Minor to moderate chips treated with dental bonding are completed in a single appointment — Dr. Morris applies and sculpts the composite resin directly onto the tooth, then cures and polishes it in the same visit. Larger chips requiring a crown or veneer will involve a second appointment once the laboratory restoration is ready.
Dr. Morris selects composite resin or porcelain shades using a detailed colour-matching process, ensuring the repair blends with your surrounding enamel. Porcelain restorations in particular are virtually indistinguishable from natural tooth structure under normal lighting conditions.
Composite bonding repairs typically last 5-10 years before they may need refreshing, depending on your bite and habits such as nail-biting or grinding. Porcelain veneers and ceramic crowns are more durable, commonly lasting 10-15 years or longer with regular maintenance and check-ups.
