Lost or dislodged fillings/crowns: emergency repair in Wellington

When a filling or crown becomes lost or dislodged, it can expose your tooth to further damage and infection. At Newtown Dental, we know that this situation requires immediate attention to prevent additional complications. Our emergency repair service for lost or dislodged dental restorations is designed to stabilise your tooth quickly, restore its function, and protect your oral health.

A missing filling or crown is not merely an aesthetic concern—it poses serious risks. Without the protective covering, the underlying tooth structure is vulnerable to decay, sensitivity, and potential infection. Our experienced team will assess the damage promptly and implement the necessary repairs to ensure that your tooth remains intact and healthy.

At our Wellington clinic, we offer a range of repair solutions tailored to your specific needs:

• Re-cementation: For crowns that have become loose, we can often re-cement them quickly, restoring stability and function.
• Replacement Fillings: If a filling has been lost, our dentists are skilled in replacing it using durable, high-quality materials.
• Temporary Restorations: In cases where immediate permanent repair isn’t possible, we provide temporary solutions that protect your tooth until you can receive full treatment.

Our approach is focused on rapid, effective intervention. We use modern dental adhesives and materials that not only secure your restoration but also blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. This ensures that you regain both functionality and aesthetic appeal in the shortest possible time.

Repairing a lost or dislodged restoration is only the first step. At Newtown Dental, we also emphasise preventive care and patient education. After addressing your emergency, our team will offer guidance on how to care for your restored tooth and prevent future issues. This may include recommendations on proper oral hygiene techniques, dietary advice, and follow-up checkups to monitor your progress.
