Go to a reputable dentist, you may have a hairline fracture down to the root, you probably need X-rays, or worse case, you may need a root canal, if you exposed the pulp. If its a small,superficial chip, you don't need anesthetics, just a veneer/bond.

I never heard of numbing the gums to bond a chipped front tooth. But the needle stings for a second and then its fine after that. It shouldnt take very long.

no it does not hurt,ive had shots before and all you feel is a little pinch on your gum and thats all, just relax you'll be fine

Doesnt hurt bad, the numbing cream will numb it enough.
