domestic short hair's question about Tooth Fracture

Question

The tiny tip is missing from my cats top canine tooth. Doesnt seem to hurt. I never noticed it before. He yawned and I say its flat. But it is just a really small piece missing.

Accepted Answer

Thank you for such a clear picture!
The only issue would be if the pulp is exposed. In this case, we would see a slight indent and pinkish tissue where the tooth has chipped.
However, this is unlikely as not much of the tooth has broken.
This type of injury is not uncommon and rarely poses an issue.
Do ask the vet to have a look when next in for a regular check  and monitor for any symptoms such as excessive drooling or a reduced appetite.
