What happens if you don't fix chipped teeth?
It depends on the size, location and cause of the chip. If you chip the front tooth due to some accident, if it is not an aesthetic problem and has not gone to the Dentin, if you leave it, it's not a problem. If you chip a back tooth that is passed the enamel and is into the second layer (Dentin), that should be fixed because it may break more or cause decay. READ MORE
How bad is it to fall asleep without brushing your teeth?
