What does a dentist do to repair chipped enamel?

Repair...: There are materials that the dentists use to "repair" enamel. Resins that imitate the texture and shade of the tooth are available and the dentist is very familiar with this type of material.

Bonding: He repairs the chipped enamel by adding same shade bonding material to the tooth. It's quick and painless..

Depends on Size: If the chip is small, it can usually be repaired with a small white filling, often called "bonding." If it's a bit bigger, you may need a stronger material, like porcelain. If it's a front tooth, that could mean a veneer or a crown. If it's a back tooth, it could be an inlay, an onlay, or a crown. These are all similar but different sizes and shapes. Just depends on how big it is and where.
