Why won't my dentist bond my chipped tooth?

September 28, 2016
Asked By:Alexaaandra in Somerset, NJ

My big front tooth chipped. I went to my dentist, which there are two in the practice. The one dentist fixed my tooth with bonding perfectly. Within a week, the tooth chipped again. I went back but the other dr. saw me. The 2nd dr told me that he can't bond the chipped tooth to make it even with the other one bc it will keep chipping. I'm so confused as to why he cannot do this. My 2 big teeth on top do not hit my bottom teeth unless I purposely do it.
