If you have a small chip in your tooth, it will not heal on it’s own, enamel and dentine cannot regrow. If you are in pain you should visit your dentist to ensure you haven’t damaged your whole tooth or compromised the nerve.
What happens if your tooth is slightly chipped?
If you have a small chip in your tooth, it won’t cause much damage at first, however, it may lead to complications. Small chips can also cause you to have sharp edges, which can cut your tongue, lips or cheek.
A small chip can also weaken your tooth, which could mean your tooth is more vulnerable to breaks in the future.
Will a slightly chipped tooth get worse?
It’s likely that a chipped tooth that’s left untreated is more likely to chip or break further in the future. As well as affecting your smile, you may experience pain, sensitivity or possible further breakage.
Are small chips in teeth normal?
Chipped teeth are very common. It’s possible you might not even know what caused them, it could be trauma, or accidentally biting on very hard foods, grinding your teeth or using your teeth to open bottles & jars.
Should I go to the dentist if I chip my tooth?
If you have chipped, fractured or broken your tooth you should visit your dentist to get it checked. It’s important to check that you haven’t damaged further, or that you don’t have an infection, which cause you to lose a tooth.
How long can I leave a chipped tooth?
Even if you don’t experience any pain, you should get your checked by your dentist to make sure that you haven’t caused any long term damage.
Why did my tooth chip so easily?
One of the most common reasons you may chip a tooth could be due to poor oral hygiene. Your enamel may be weakened by cavities and decay, affecting the integrity of your tooth. Brushing your teeth twice a day for at least 2 minutes will help to reduce the risk.
Do chipped teeth grow back?

Can a dentist fix a chipped tooth in one day?
Dentists can you composite bonding to improve the appearance of a chipped tooth, this is carried out in one appointment, usually without the need for anaesthetic.

We’re excited to invite you to a special event we’re hosting at Evolve Dentistry on Monday 15th December, and we’d love for you to be part of it.
From 10am to 3pm, we’ll be running a Cyclathon at the practice to help raise funds for Bridge2Aid, a charity providing vital emergency dental care and training in communities that need it most.
This year, our very own Carol Somerville Roberts is taking on the incredible Peaks to Plains Safari Cycle Challenge in Tanzania, and this event is part of her fundraising efforts.
How you can get involved:
🚴♂️ Hop on a bike – join us for a few minutes (or more!) and help us cover as many miles as possible.
💙 Come along to cheer us on – your support means so much.
📱 Make a donation on the day – we’ll have SumUp, cash collection, and QR code donation options available.
If the weather is kind, we’ll be cycling outside Evolve; if not, we’ll set up indoors, so the event will go ahead either way.
Whether you’re keen to pedal or just pop by to show your support, we’d absolutely love to see you there. Every mile and every pound makes a real difference to the communities Bridge2Aid supports.
Thank you in advance for your kindness and encouragement — it means the world to us and to Carol.

✨ What is amalgam removal — and when do we use the SMART protocol?
In this video, Carol Somerville Roberts explains what amalgam removal involves and the different options available to patients.
Some patients choose to have their amalgam fillings replaced for cosmetic reasons, while others request that the removal is carried out using the SMART protocol.
For those who request the SMART protocol, it provides an enhanced approach designed to minimise exposure during the procedure, with additional safety measures for both patients and our team.
If you’re considering having your amalgam fillings replaced — with or without the SMART protocol — our team is here to guide you through your options. 💙
