Hello Definitely if the front two teeth are chipped off the first and foremost and the most conservative treatment would be to do a cosmetic composite filling for them. The discoloration, the durability of the filling depends upon the amount of tooth structure loss and the expertise of the treating doctor. You can visit an aesthetic dentist for the same. But yes some restrictions will always be there like you cannot bite anything hard such as nuts or hard salads or fruits directly from your front teeth. But to start off this is the best option because other options would require a more invasive treatment such as veneers and crowns so if the cosmetic filling does not stay for long or if you're not comfortable with it then you can think of these options

Hello Weather a cosmetic filling will work or not depends upon the amount of tooth that chipped off . If it’s not involving the nerve supply of that tooth and if relation of your upper front teeth to lower is near ideal then fillings will work. Definitely they discolour a little with time . Long term solution would be to get esthetic crowns . Again depends on amount of tooth structure that chipped off
