how do they fix a chipped tooth

A chipped tooth is typically fixed using a few common dental methods depending on the size and severity of the chip. These include dental bonding (using tooth-colored composite resin to fill and shape the chip), dental crowns (caps placed over the damaged tooth for larger chips), and dental veneers (thin shells bonded to the front surface for aesthetic repair). In severe cases where the tooth's interior is exposed, a root canal treatment followed by restoration might be required. The choice depends on the chip’s size, location, and if there's pain or decay involved. Bonding and fillings are quick and painless for small chips, crowns and veneers require more visits but restore function and appearance well, and root canals are necessary when the tooth pulp is affected.
