From Dental Emergency to Perfect Smile: How Tindal Prosthodontics Restored Confidence Overnight

What To Do If You Chip or Lose a Tooth

When dental emergencies happen, timing and care make all the difference. Recently, we had the privilege of helping a young patient who chipped his tooth late on a Sunday. Understandably, his family was worried — but they acted quickly by leaving us a voicemail. Within an hour, we were able to connect with them by text, even though our office was closed.

By the very next morning at 8 a.m., we welcomed them into our office. Thanks to the trust this family placed in us and the dedication of our team, we were able to repair his smile seamlessly. The results speak for themselves — his tooth looks perfect, and more importantly, he left our office with his confidence fully restored.

“My son chipped his tooth yesterday. I called and left a voicemail. They text me within an hour on a Sunday. Got him in the following morning at 8am. Did an excellent job fixing it! Looks perfect! Very grateful.”

Why Dr. Ben Tindal’s Expertise Matters

At the heart of every successful outcome is skill and experience. Dr. Ben Tindal is a Board-Certified Prosthodontist, one of only a small percentage of dentists nationwide who undergo years of advanced training focused on restoring and replacing teeth.

His extensive background in prosthodontics means he brings both precision and artistry to every case, from chipped teeth to full-mouth rehabilitations. In urgent situations like this, his ability to blend cosmetic detail with long-term function ensures patients receive not just a quick fix — but a restoration designed to last.

How Digital Dentistry Delivers Seamless Results

In this case, the outcome wasn’t just about expertise — it was also about technology. At Tindal Prosthodontics, we use the latest in digital dentistry to make treatments faster, more comfortable, and more precise.

• Intraoral Scanners replace messy impressions with accurate digital imaging.

• 3D Printing & Milling allow us to design and create restorations in-house, often the same day.

• Digital Smile Design helps patients preview results and guides treatment planning.

• Cone Beam CT Imaging provides 3D views of teeth and bone for highly accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Together, these tools mean emergencies can be treated quickly — with results that look natural and function just like real teeth.

What To Do If You Chip or Lose a Tooth

• Call immediately. Even after hours, leave a message — we’ll respond as soon as possible.

• Store the tooth in milk. This helps preserve it until you can be seen.

• Get in quickly. The sooner you’re treated, the better the outcome.
