Is There Anything I Can Do for This Chipped Tooth?

Kilometers
#25 is chipped from making contact with #8. The thickness was chipped & the front of the tooth bonded. I was told the corner (also thickness chipped) damage couldn't be fixed because it was a small area. Another dentist told me it likely could have been fixed at the time of bonding but for whatever reason the first dentist didn't do it. I know it's not a big chip but it drives me nuts, I drag my lips over the rough edges constantly. Is there anything I can do to fix this or am I out of luck?
