Chipped incisor
I chipped a small piece off my front tooth a few years ago in a football accident. Also my teeth are slightly crooked. One of my front teeth sticks out a little and looks like I have a giant gap in front when I tilt my head upwards. What are my options? I'd like to keep the costs minimal.

We can summarize your issues :-
1) Chipped/Broken front tooth
2) Crooked/Malaligned teeth
3) Gap/Diastema in front teeth
Treatment Plant According to me:-
1) Orthodontic Intervention/Braces for malaligned teeth and diastema closure.
2) After completion of orthodontic treatment, esthetic reconstruction of broken front tooth with composite.
Next Steps
Visit a Orthodontist for thorough evaluation.

Since u r young the best option may be orthodontic braces or clear aligners. The second and a quicker option could be smile designing. If u send me ur pic I can evaluate better. Feel free to consult Laser Smile Care Centre. God bless u.

Hello dear
The best option to rectify malpostioned teeth is braces but it takes a year to do so.
If the tooth positioning is not very curved I suggest to go in for cosmetic treatment ttgat will cost less and take minimal time to complete.
Take care

A definitive treatment option cannot be given without having a look at the clinical picture and X-rays.... most likely planned orthodontic treatment will be the best option for you and the chipped tooth can be built up by tooth coloured materials for best aesthetics..... Regards....
