Here's the story:I fell down from my bed with my mouth wide open and accidently hit a wooden object,so i broke a small part of my right front tooth.I just broke a small part of the teeth,it still looks OK when i smile but somehow,i felt that it looks kind of weird.It's like my 2 front teeth don't look the same anymore.My left front tooth looks like a nice shaped-teeth while my right front tooth looks the same just that it has a little curve on the lower part.I'm embarrased sometimes to smile because i'm scared people may notice it.So my question is,if i were to visit a dentist,what would he/she do about it?And how much really will it cost me?I really want to get my killer-smile back.Thanks so much for your help!

THE DENTIST WOULD MOST LIKELY PLACE A SMALL TOOTH-COLORED FILLING T REPAIR THE DAMAGE. THIS IS NOT EXPENSIVE.

Dr. Albert, the professional is giving the best answer. That for m of repair can be fairly inexpensive. As long as the rest of the tooth is healthy it should be fine. I smashed my two front teeth as a child (grade 3 I think) on my way to a bike safety event. Permanent teeth and I had to go through double root canal. A chip is not as much of a problem to fix if it is only a little piece. Good luck.

Hey I think that would look kinda cool, if you put on the right attitude to it.
But if you're really conscious about it, then go to dentist and get it fixed. I don't think it'll be that expensive. He'll just fill it in.

I think if you look ok when you smile you shouldn't worry about it. You can still go to the dentist to see what they will say and they probably give some advise on what to do.I personally think you should leave it alone.
