Believe it or not, small chips are not easy to repair. Bonding, the procedure of colored filling material applied to the tooth, can only adhere well to larger surfaces. That is why small chips sometimes break off when eating, or if the bite is not carefully adjusted to avoid the lower teeth from hitting it, cause easy breakage. So this is a loaded question. First, a thorough bite examination is needed to see how the other teeth hit this edge. AND how did this chip occur in the first place? If it came about from wear or interference from other teeth, a few additional steps are needed. Adjusting the interference to avoid the chip, and possibly creating a small "preparation" into enamel to get more area to bond to. A knowledgeable cosmetic dentist performs all of these steps and tests automatically to increase the chances of the filling staying a reasonable amount of time. Even so, a few replacements of a small chip over the years should be anticipated. There is a lot of wear and tear from eating, and tooth movement on a tiny bonded area. So larger breaks may be easier to repair than small ones! Lastly, if the color and or shape of the teeth are also poor, or there are other large fillings, a porcelain veneer will remedy all of the problems at once. So cost cannot be determined. one chip is not the same as the next!
