Will it hurt to get chipped tooth repaired?

Q. I’m twelve and I chipped my canine tooth on gum. My first question, I want to know if it will hurt to get it repaired? My second question, is how did I chip my tooth on gum??

A. Generally a little repair will not hurt – you can always have it numbed if it does.  I do not know how you managed to chip your tooth on gum unless the gum was very old
