By leaving this small chip in the bottom of my tooth am I putting myself at risk for further damage? Or will it be ok? (photo)

No, there is no risk of further damage to your tooth if you were to leave this alone. When you see your dentist next, they can smoothen out the rough edge for you and you shoudl be all set. 

Hello and thank you for your great question. Based on the picture provided you can wait  till you will be back in the US and to fix it. Just stay away from biting forks again...Good luck.

Thank you for your inquiry and time in submitting your tooth photo. We're sorry to hear about your front tooth chipping but are pleased to know that you made an appointment in the upcoming future. You should be just fine and won't damage your tooth any further, but of course you should be careful. Try to avoid biting into anything and if you have a night guard, you can still wear it. We hope this helps put your mind at ease. Good luck to you!
