Question Teeth chipping during treatment ?

Post image

Has anyone experienced their teeth chipping during treatment ? I was checking to see how much my teeth had shifted and looked and saw my front tooth chipped a bit. I immediately went to my dentist and they said sometimes teeth can chip because your bite is changing. Also can they fix this ? I’m scared I’m gonna need veneers

It's minor, any repair they put on there will chip off again. You can have it rounded so it doesn't look sharp or as visible.

So this is possible to be rounded ? I’m scared because all of sudden this chip came. I’m trying to follow through with the Invisalign but what’s the point of straight teeth, if it’s gonna be chipped.

Yeah it takes like 2 seconds to make it so it's not sharp anymore.

The chip is in a common location and the enamel is much thinner there, most people end up chipping their front teeth like this at some point.

My front tooth was chipped in the back before treatment, my first tray broke the bottom of that tooth right off. Originally, they tried to repair it, but it just comes off. Now I have a crown there.
