My tooth has chipped at the gum line. What are my options? Implant? (Photo)

Hi:From the photo it appears you might have a cavity at the gum line.  If there is no nerve damage a simple tooth color filling will be the best option.  Please make an appointment with a dentist as soon as possible before the cavity gets any deeper.Best,Dr. Maddahi

This dark area can be a cavity on the root or tartar buildup. Make an appointment with a dentist for an exam and X-rays to determine what the problem is and the solution to fix it. If it is a cavity, a white filling can be done to repair the decay area. 

I would first want to know how the tooth got chipped so that we can talk about options to fix it.Next I would want to make certain that aside from the chip, the truth is otherwise in good health.Assuming that it is, then your solution might be something as simple as placing a bonded tooth colored filling.I hope you found this information to be helpful,Dr. Champagne
