Even though I am older and half a big molar fell out
instead of a small chip, I waited and waited and
then another half of the other molar behind that one
fell out on the same side. I have two new teeth
now but I was in the Dentist Office for 5 hours one
day.
I recommend go to the Dentist anyway.

As long as its a tiny chip it can last for a while...but just a warning, when a tooth is chipped it is much easier for it to break even more. So be forwarned that tooth can become a problem if it is not fixed.Good Luck!

HELLO,
W/O SEEING THE ACTUAL CHIP AND X-RAYS OF THE TOOTH IT'S INAPPROPRIATE FOR ME TO GIVE AN OPINION.
SEE A DENTIST.
