hi, my gf just got a minor chipped tooth.. it's at the bottom right corner of her front left tooth.
anyone experienced before or has any advice? is the chemical bonding fix expensive? will it work for such a small chip? would it be better if the tooth was smoothened/filed instead?
TIA... gf is pretty upset over it..
how small? you think would require filling not?
my friend had a chipped tooth... just did the regular filling.
see my gf being so upset over it :( ruined the day.
tmr is sunday, have to wait under monday.. sigh.
My condolences....I had the same case several years ago when I bumped into a swimming pool edge while I was swimming......

ouchieee
Best to remove the tooth and insert an artificial one... Sharp edges from the chip can cause bleeding and the tooth to decay easily.
Chipped my tooth when eating before, cant rem what was the ridiculous thing I was eating. Now the tooth got 2 distinct colour ( in the mist of a lot of other colour shades ) . Sometime the filling does not last and have to go for refilling again.
Put gold filling ..... ![]()
See dentist pls.

Dun be crazy
Its just a chipped edges, no need implant
Just do a crown will do. Around 400 for a full pocerlain one
the dentist would just do an enamel veneer to it..dun worry less than 100..i got my front two teeth fixed with enamel..broke it after kana whack with a baseball bat 8 years ago..still lasting...
thanks for the comments...
gf tmr going dentist, her teeth have always been in excellent condition so she's now brooding over it...
wonder if it's too small a chipping off to be bonded?
if do smoothing, she's worried the teeth will look different already.
sigh.
