When a tooth breaks or chips, it’s not just about appearance—it’s about protection. oprava skusu, proces obnovy poškozeného zubu pomocí kompozitních materiálů nebo keramiky. Also known as zubní výplň, it prevents bacteria from entering the tooth, stops further cracking, and restores your ability to chew without pain. Many people think a small chip is harmless, but even a tiny crack can lead to infection, nerve damage, or even tooth loss if left untreated. The sooner you fix it, the cheaper and simpler the solution becomes.
Modern kompozitní výplň, pružný, bílý materiál, který se přesně přizpůsobí tvaru zubu a vypadá přirozeně. Also known as bílá výplň, it is bonded directly to the tooth surface, requiring minimal removal of healthy enamel. Unlike old silver fillings, it doesn’t expand or contract with temperature changes, which means less risk of new cracks forming. And unlike crowns, it doesn’t require grinding down healthy parts of the tooth—making it the ideal choice for small to medium chips. How long it lasts depends on where it is, how hard you grind your teeth, and whether you brush properly. Most last 5–10 years with good care, and many last longer if you avoid biting into hard things like ice, nuts, or candy.
What happens if you ignore it? A small chip can grow into a full fracture. That’s when you need a crown—or worse, an extraction. One patient we saw waited six months because she thought it was "just a chip." By then, the crack reached the nerve. The cost? Over 30,000 Kč for a root canal and crown, instead of 3,500 Kč for a simple repair.
Not all chips need the same fix. If the break is tiny and only affects the enamel, a simple polishing might be enough. If it’s deeper, you’ll need a filling. If it’s near the gum line or affects a front tooth, we often use zubní zlomenina, termín pro popis poškození zubu, které může být způsobeno úrazem, kariézou nebo zuby na sebe třením. Also known as zlomený kousek zubu, it requires careful assessment to choose between bonding, veneers, or crowns. We check for hidden cracks using special lights and digital scans—because what you see isn’t always what’s there.
You don’t need to wait until it hurts. If you’ve noticed a rough edge, sensitivity to cold, or just a weird feeling when you bite, get it checked.
