My dentist can&#8217;t seem to secure it. The chip isn\u2019t large, but it&#8217;s big enough to show when I smile. The bonding fell off four times. When it comes off, my tooth looks worse than it did without the bonding. I\u2019m tired of trial and error and going back and forth to the dentist. I lost my confidence in her anyway. She doesn&#8217;t know how to repair my tooth. What do you suggest?\u00a0 It&#8217;s sad to think about changing dentists for a small tooth chip, but I&#8217;m self-conscious about my smile. Thanks. Lydia<\/p>\n<p>Lydia,<\/p>\n<p>Many dentists find restoring a chipped lower incisor challenging because the edges of the tooth hit the opposite upper tooth whenever you close your mouth. An impact of upper and lower teeth can cause a tooth to chip. The composite on a chipped tooth is under extreme stress that can loosen the bonding. A dentist must understand occlusal stress to ensure the <a href=\"https:\/\/delaunedental.com\/new-orleans-tooth-bonding.html\">bonding stays intact<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Veneers or Dental Bonding for Lower Front Chipped Teeth?<\/h2>\n<p>Skilled cosmetic dentists can use dental bonding or <a href=\"https:\/\/delaunedental.com\/new-orleans-porcelain-veneers.html\">porcelain veneers to conceal chips<\/a> on teeth, but they must minimize stress on the teeth when they meet. Before treatment, a cosmetic dentist will consider the position of each chipped tooth. For example, light shaving may be needed for a tooth that leans forward. Otherwise, it would absorb more stress when you close your mouth when the upper and lower teeth meet. Stress on teeth is minimized when the upper and lower incisors meet simultaneously, and only an expert cosmetic dentist can achieve the desired results.<\/p>\n<p>We recommend finding a dentist with postgraduate training in occlusion, bite, and cosmetic dentistry. Schedule a consultation to learn about your options.<\/p>\n<p>Metairie cosmetic dentist Dr. Duane Delaune sponsors this post.
