Chips happen fast and usually painlessly. A fork, an olive pit, a water bottle cap, and a corner of a front tooth is gone. The lack of pain is why people leave them, but a chipped edge is rougher than intact enamel and tends to keep chipping along the same weakness.
At Bluewater Dental, our Palm Beach Gardens office repairs most chips in a single visit using composite bonding shade-matched to the tooth. Larger breaks that reach into the dentin generally need a crown to survive chewing, and we will tell you honestly which of the two yours is.
Dr. Calvin Kaler leads our Palm Beach Gardens office on Burns Road, where a small chip is treated as a small job and not an opening for something larger.
