Answers:
As a dentist I can tell you that I highly recommend you have this tooth taken care of by your regular dentist. Any chipped tooth causes the tooth to be susceptible to infection. This infection, or abscess, can cause serious health problems including possible fatal complications if not treated. Have this taken care of now while it is least expensive, if infection occurs you are looking at two options: root canal therapy or extraction. Good luck!
