    I chipped my front tooth & my dentist bonded it 2 times. Now I am going back next Monday to have it bonded a 3rd time.
    If I do need a crown down the road he suggested crowning all 4 of my teeth surrounding the front tooth to get a better cosmetic look.
    They must have trouble making a crown the exact color. This seems aggressive to me!!

      I recently chipped my first bottom left molar while eating a gristly steak, and it chipped right on the side. Luckily it isn't painful or sensitive, so hopefully it's nothing major. I've had great luck with composite feelings, cause I chipped my front tooth when I was 10. A wild soccer ball came out of nowhere, hit my mouth, and broke my glasses. I was very mad that day... The feelings still look perfect 9 years later, so hopefully they'll last. I have a dentist appointment this week, so hopefully that chip isn't major. I also have a few cavities, which is common for red headed people to get. I brush and floss twice everyday, and I still get them somehow...

I ended up just scheduling an appointment with my dentist and they took a look at it and fixed it right away and should last between 9-11 years before I’d have to do it again or do a more permanent solution to fixing it.

    Another question is if it falls again, can we do the composite bonding continuously? Or eventually he needs something more extensive procedure? I would like to avoid the 'crown or veneer" process.

    Hey Dr Tozzi, thanks for the upload. I have a chipped tooth on my left incisor at the bottom and it has been fixed with composite that never seems to stay put. Unfortunately when I work out, I clench my teeth when lifting. Just had it fixed a day ago and it came off. My question is, for someone like me who tends to clench their teeth, what is a more stable option? I know that I should have worn a mouth guard, but tend to forget. Thanks for any help!

    Question if you chip your tooth with a toothpick how can you fix it even though it's kind of broken and as well like you just set under I live in Puerto Rico so I'm asking a question

    Wait, it's possible to fill the tip of a tooth? Several years ago when I'd asked a dentist about some little nicks in my front teeth from chewing on my lips, they said that fillings would just fall out if they tried.
    Can you chew on a surface that has been repaired that way?
    A few days ago, I went to a dentist for an exam, mentioned some areas I wanted him to look closer at (since I hadn't been able to finish my last round of fillings and things from last time and wasn't sure how bad they'd gotten in six months), and when I mentioned a filling I had been told to redo (yet again), and he said he didn't see a reason for redoing it, and I said that was odd because food has been getting stuck in some kind of hole there lately, and the edge of the filling still gets caught on floss sometimes and I can even feel that slight pointy area with my tongue, he acted like he'd look to see if he could find that little place, but he instead turned on one of the drill things and loped off part of the tooth (though he didn't go deep enough to reach the filling). I knew he was acting a tad irritable throughout the appointment, but it wasn't until after that point, that he said I didn't have an appointment for an exam (even though I did make one three weeks previously on the phone, and no one said anything about some kind of mix-up when I came in). It's one of the molars, and he made mesa's out of the interior points. I think that spot may be the main chewing surface I have on that side of my mouth (and I've been avoiding chewing on the other side of my mouth for the past two years because the opposite tooth there needed a root canal treatment and crown ...which I'm trying to get finished). There's been twice so far, in the past three or four days, that I would feel a little jolt of pain when first starting to chew on something, but it usually doesn't do that. I'm not sure what to do, or even if the damage is as bad as I'm imagining. He's also the dentist that I have to see to finish the root canal treatment and crown, and he acted like he was doing me a big favor by making an appointment for me in two weeks to redo the exam better. But I'm not sure I trust him not to get upset with me if I ask him about the tooth he tore up. And if he already told me that I don't have to have anything done besides finishing the crown, then would he tell me anything different in two weeks? Last time a dentist told me I didn't have any sign of cavities, the next time I came in I needed four or five fillings and had a cavity so deep I needed a root canal treatment (and there I thought cutting back on sugar and eating more produce would be healthy). Of course I'd had no idea, since my teeth apparently only hurt if nothing is wrong with them. ...I'm sorry. I've just kind of freaking out right now.

    Is it okay to leave a broken tooth as it is? I had fallen down and broken my tooth 8 years ago. Do I need to get it fixed? Or is it okay to leave it as it is?
