I CHIPPED MY FRONT TOOTH, NOW WHAT…

Editorial clarification (October 2026): A fixed bridge still requires daily cleaning beneath the replacement tooth and around the supporting teeth, using a floss threader or another device recommended by your dentist. Bonding may also be suitable for a chipped adult tooth; crowns and veneers are not always necessary. Tooth replacement, treatment timing, and long-term outcomes depend on the individual case. Good home care and dental visits support tooth retention but cannot guarantee keeping every tooth for life.
