Dear Patient,
The tooth area chipped off due to a severe cavity. For thorough examination of the tooth, get it checked by your nearby dentist. They will assist you much better clinically with X-rays & let you know if it can be treated with simple restoration (filling) or RCT (only if the cavity is deep and there is severe pain)
Hope this was helpful. Keep smiling.

Xray needs to be taken.
If the small part of the tooth is chipped without pain, then a filling has to be done.
If it is associated with pain then root canal treatment has to be done.

First thing take an x-ray, if the decay is not extending up to pulp, can get TF done and PF on a later date. If it's extending upto pulp..go for Root Canal Treatment or Tooth Extraction
