yes, and beautifully. depending on the size it could be done with a new "paint on" stuff they have. Or, if a lot of the tooth is missing a porcelain crown might be necessary. I lost half of my front tooth twice. Once when I was a kid but the tooth grew out and the broken part just wore off. The second time required some work so the first time they did the paint on stuff which is great but later I had to have it crowned.

most of your answers have suggested seeing the dentist. my daughter chipped her tooth as a child i took her to the dentist and he said unless it is troubling her leave it alone. She is now 26 still with a chipped front tooth. So it depends on how bad the chip is and then if it needs it it can be capped. i would like to now how long ago that person was charged 16pound. My daughter paid 30 for a check up NHS

if ure not happy with having the chip replaced showing a faint hairline crack, then you could opt for a vaneer, which is like a fake tooth placed on top of ure own, its what all the stars do, mind u it would be expensive to have the full set done, but a single tooth on its own would cost about £360, talk to ure dentist and see what he recommends !!
good luck

The damage needs to be assessed by a dentist. It all depends on how big a chip there is. They may recommend a bonded fill, a filing, or nothing at all.

You could have a composite filling put there ( white filling ) which can be done on the NHS. But as its your front tooth and you use them to bite into things you have to be careful once the filling is placed.

you can go to the dentist and they can clean it and put some kind
of cap which would be natural color with your teeth. they have many ways of fixing chipped teeth these days.

A dentist can repair your tooth.

If you still have some spare teeth, pull that one out and a new one will grow. Otherwise the solution is to get an operation.
