Chipped & Worn Teeth
Teeth often chip. If you look at your front teeth closely in the mirror, you may detect some chips. And if you have a chipped tooth, it can affect both your appearance and how you feel about yourself. Chipped & Warn Teeth will, over time, stain and wear more rapidly. Also, once the enamel has been compromised, teeth tend to break and chip more and more often.
We tend to think that only our front teeth can be chipped but you can break or chip a back tooth, too. A chipped tooth is sometimes, but not always, painful. In other words, you could have a chipped tooth and not know it.
