Hello madam
If your enamel is chipped off it does not mean u need a crown 😊 you can get a composite restoration but keep in touch with your dentist
And biting habit won't be compromised

Hi,crowning never leads to loss of natural biting power,the teeth with enamel loss should be root canal treated and then go for zirconia crowns as their strength is comparable to that of natural teeth.
