my front teeth is chipped is there a toothpaste that repairs teeth

Q. Hello, one of my front teeth has a chip in the top where it meets the gum, now its starting to hurt alot and the back of the tooth is falling apart, im scared its going to fall out and its so embarrasing and horrifieing if it fell out id look a complete fool, i cant get to a dentist because i have to wait 6 months before im accepted… what can i do to prevent it from falling out, any toothpast that repairs teeth?

A. Dear W,

Apologies for the late reply but I have been out of the country for the last 2 weeks.

Unfortunately there is no other option for you but to try and get into a dentist for an emergency appointment. This may mean paying privately if no NHS dentists will see you. Writing to your MP would also be a possibility - at the very least to let them know your predicament about lack of access to an NHS dentist.

Kindest regards
