Help! Brother broke front tooth!

Question

Okay last nite my twin bro was doing airsoft and a bullet hit his front tooth. Its broken a little less then in half. He has to go to the dentist today, but I was just wondering what a general idea for treatment may be. There isn't a nerve showing, but he said it hurts. And also we both start school in 3 days and he is concerned that his teeth will look weird. Is it possible to have treatment done before that? And what kinds of possible treatments is he looking at?

Answer 1

They can fix it, however they can't put the original tooth back on since this happened last night- to save it he would have had to have been rushed to dentist right away with the tooth or the emergency room. They can rebuild the tooth in one day as an emergency appointment.  It may not look just like nothing happened but they can make it look very good- maybe just a slight discoloration if they can't match the color perfect to his other half of the tooth. If he gets in today though he can look good for school- it is expensive though- I hope you guys have dental insurance- good luck that's a horrible thing to happen to him.

Answer 2

if you have the part of the tooth that broke off you might be able to get it glued back on but if you don't  have the part of the tooth that broke you may just have to get part of a fake tooth put on it or they will glue a fake hollow tooth over the one that broke
