Hello

In winter, many people come in after slipping and hitting their teeth on the floor, causing a chipped tooth, or after biting into hard food and breaking a front tooth. Winter is a season when many people come in with chipped front teeth for a variety of reasons.

Today, we’ll look at a case of restoring a broken tooth through minimal-prep or no-prep laminates at Yonsei Yegam Dental Clinic near City Hall Station, and also close to Chungjeongno Station.

[We only post cases where the patient has agreed to photo disclosure]

Yonsei Yegam Dental Clinic is a convenient location for visitors from anywhere in Seoul, about a 3-minute walk from Exit 7 of City Hall Station (straight 230 meters), across from the Samsung main building.

Through front-tooth laminate treatment, we can make the front teeth even and also change the color to look more natural and whiter.

Cases that can be done with no-prep can be done that way, but for patients who come in after front-tooth trauma, the front tooth is often positioned inward compared to the other teeth, and the broken area is not smooth and is uneven,

so protruding areas or areas that are too rough and irregular need to be gently smoothed. Therefore, it can be done after minimal reduction.

The difference from crowns is that with a front-tooth crown, the front, back, and side surfaces of the tooth are all shaved down before the crown is placed, but laminate is no-prep or minimal-prep, and even when reduction is done, only the front surface of the tooth is shaved.

There is a previous post explaining how much the amount of reduction differs between crowns and laminates below!

Because only 2 teeth were treated, the result was made to look natural while still appearing whiter than before. A laminate option that is possible even when an orthodontic retainer is attached behind the teeth Even when an orthodontic retainer is attached behind the teeth, laminates can be done without touching the back surface of the teeth, so compared to crowns, we can reduce the financial burden on the patient (such as the cost of removing and remaking the retainer and reattaching it), and also reduce tooth shaving.

Today, I explained in detail about laminate treatment for broken front teeth. Because even a small chip in a front tooth is very noticeable, if left untreated, it can cause not only aesthetic stress but also further tooth damage. If a front tooth is chipped, and the damaged area is not too large, it may be possible to restore a natural color and shape through laminate treatment.

In particular, because broken front tooth laminate requires precise diagnosis and design, a treatment plan tailored to the tooth condition is essential.

City Hall Station Yonsei Yegam Dental Clinic, just one stop from Chungjeongno Station, based on experience treating broken front teeth, front-tooth fractures, and front-tooth laminate cases, provides treatment that minimizes tooth reduction while considering both aesthetics and function. Whether laminate is possible for the tooth, or whether another treatment such as resin or a crown is more appropriate, can be accurately determined through an in-person diagnosis.

If you are worried about a broken front tooth, don’t judge on your own—please visit for a consultation and check the current condition of your tooth.

This was laminate information shared by City Hall Station Yonsei Yegam Dental Clinic, which is visited by people from overseas as well to create beautiful, healthy teeth.
