Dentist 101 of Houston (713-773-1300), has updated its cracked tooth/emergency dental care treatments for residents of Houston’s Memorial, Westchase, Briar Forest, Bellaire, Alief, Mid-west, Braeburn, Sharpstown, and Chinatown neighborhoods.
—
The practice, which includes a team of multilingual dentists and specialists, now offers emergency dental repair treatments for patients, one or many of whose teeth have become chipped or cracked. In the case where a front tooth has been chipped, the team typically employs a naturally tooth-colored composite resin to perform a bonding procedure.

As part of the enhanced services, Dentist 101, led by Dr. Jessica Su, DMD, will also provide emergency root canal treatments for more serious cracks and breaks, where there is damage to the nerves of the tooth. Such instances can result in significant pain that a crown or cap alone cannot fix.
Almost 40% of Americans suffer at least one cracked tooth during their lifetimes according to one study, though other research indicated the issue may be more widespread. Problems related to cracked teeth are the third leading cause of tooth loss after caries and periodontal disease; as the population ages, it is likely that the issue will become even more prevalent.
Dentist 101, which features a state-of-the-art facility, is well equipped to deal with emergency dental repairs. Their goal is primarily to stabilize patients who are in pain and then determine the extent of the damage. After consulting with the patient, the team determines the best way forward.
Chipped teeth can have a range of causes – from eating hard foods to untreated cavities, and contact sports. Dental bonding isn’t a permanent solution and can degrade over time as a result of normal chewing and daily use. Instead of being temporarily patched with bondage, the chip can be treated with a porcelain veneer that covers the entire tooth, depending on the patient’s preference.
Dentist 101 also offers a wide range of additional treatments, including dental crowns, deep cleaning, teeth extraction, dental implants, and general preventative and restorative oral health care. The clinic accepts most dental insurance programs, including non-managed care, indemnity (traditional), and PPO out-of-network.
One patient commented: “Great dental experience. Dr. Su was very friendly and welcoming. And her technique for applying local anesthetic is amazing. I’ve always felt little to no discomfort during my visits. The team here is great as well. Karla and Shawn have been awesome with scheduling. I highly recommend this location.”
