This chip has grown over time. A dentist I saw recently said I would need a root canal and crown (like the other front tooth, but IT was a complete break) bcs my enamel is REAL bad. Im afraid every time I bite. The entire corner is abt to break off. Is a crown good enough? W/out the root canal? Is there an even a less expensive option? Should I get other opinions? Sorry the pic is not great. Thank you too anyone who takes time to give me their opinion!
