Chips, cracks, worn edges and thinning enamel are surprisingly common — and they can affect everything from confidence to day-to-day comfort. With a special interest in Implantology and Cosmetic Dentistry, Regina Ilankovan provides advanced restorative and aesthetic treatments at the Wentworth Clinic to rebuild damaged teeth with results that look natural and feel like they’ve always been part of your smile.
Damage we can repair and restore
Frequent treatments include:
- Chipped or fractured teeth
- Worn or shortened teeth
- Rough or uneven edges
- Thinning, weakened enamel
- Teeth affected by grinding or long-term wear
- Breakages caused by accidents or old fillings
Even small areas of damage can progress if they are left untreated, so early care is always the most sensible approach, especially if you have noticed increased sensitivity, change in your bite, or one tooth starting to look ‘out of line’ with the others.
How we assess your teeth
Before recommending treatment, we will carry out a full clinical assessment. This includes looking at your bite, examining wear patterns, and discussing lifestyle or dietary factors that might be contributing to the problem. Knowing what has caused the damage means we can recommend treatment that not only looks good, but will also last over time.
Your treatment choices for restoring damaged teeth
Depending on the level of damage, we may suggest one or a combination of the following:
- Composite facings
Used to restore teeth affected by wear, chips or surface loss. By covering the front of the tooth with high-quality composite, we can reshape and strengthen it with minimal tooth preparation. - Porcelain veneers
For teeth that are noticeably worn or uneven, veneers offer a reliable way to restore shape, colour and balance with results that last - Crowns
Used when a tooth has lost a large amount of structure or needs full coverage. Crowns strengthen the tooth while restoring function and appearance. - Bridges
If wear or breakage has resulted in a missing tooth, a bridge can fill the space and support your bite. - Implants
For severely damaged teeth, or when a tooth is beyond repair, Implantology allows us to replace the tooth entirely with a stable, natural-looking implant restoration.
Why early treatment matters
Worn or broken teeth rarely improve on their own. Without care, they can lead to further fractures, sensitivity, headaches, jaw discomfort, and difficult chewing. Taking action sooner rather than later supports long-term oral health and helps prevent further problems.
