Chipped a small bit of enamel off front tooth (hurt, dentist, filling)

[gussie]

I chipped a small piece of enamel off my front tooth...I don't have any money right now for the dentist visit.. Is there anything I can put on it to protect it until I can see a dentist??

You can buy temporary filling material over the counter.

Not sure how well this will work for a chipped tooth.....but it can't hurt to try it.

Other that that, I would certainly be religious about keeping that chipped area clean.

they may need to put a cap on it. If you do have a requalr dentist I
would have them look at it since it is a front tooth. Also they could put
a temporary cap on it for now.
