Do you just see white along the crack? Nothing darker? In that case you’re probably fine? I chipped my front tooth when I was a kid in the stupidest accident ever. I was playing some game with friends outside and started laughing so uncontrollably I hit my tooth on a stone fence. It didn’t even hurt but my friends were like “dude!”

The dentist repaired it with some sort of fake enamel-looking stuff which lasted a number of years before falling off. They did it again and it fell off again. Eventually I was like you know what? Let’s just leave it this time. It’s not causing me any grief.

Anyway, as middle-aged guy, I have lost one tooth from infection at this point, but it had nothing to do with the chip. It was a gum infection that led to a root canal and eventually they had to remove the whole thing. I’m contemplating whether to get an implant but again, it doesn’t really bother me that it’s missing? It’s pretty far back.

For future reference, if you ever see a pussy white looking mark on your gum a little above the tooth, that’s an abscess and do get that shit looked at pronto. It’ll probably hurt and let you know it’s there though.
