Question: I just chipped my tooth, what could the dentist do?
I was eating some Fun Dip and the stick that comes with it cracked my second premolar, and a little piece at the bottom back chipped off. It doesn't hurt, at all. I was just wondering, if I went to the dentist, what would they do to fix it, if anything? Thanks! x
Answers:
you need to get it filled as it will decrease the overall strength of your premolar
dentist will restore the fractured segment to maintain viability and the strength of tooth ,they will use composite to restore it which is tooth colored
They could fill it and fix the crack and chip
They will cap it with a crown but that will set you back around $1000
