[header] How to protect a chipped tooth [title] Consult a dentist. [step] When you chip a tooth, you should consult a dentist right away. If there is pain or bleeding, this is especially important. 
Even if you do not feel pain, but suspect you have a chipped tooth, you should call a dentist as soon as it is feasible. You may not be able to see or accurately assess the damage yourself, and even if you are not in pain at the moment, complications could develop after a few days or weeks.
