Chipped off tooth?

Recently I chipped off about half of my front tooth. 20 minutes after the incident, the dentist got my natural chipped off tooth bonded back. After 2 weeks, which is current date, my tooth chipped off again. What should I do now? My mind's in a whirl. It's 2am over here and yet i can't find emergency dental approach.

Chipped off tooth?
Bonding your own tooth back is only a temporary approach. You really need this tooth to be crowned. So see the dentist in the morning if you can.
Reply:Well you have to wait until morning, but I would keep the tooth in the fridge to keep it preserved.
Reply:Well you definitely need to get to a dentist ASAP (but I'm sure you knew that!) If about half of your tooth was really missing, then it can keep chipping off if repeatedly bonded back into place. You might be better served with a crown on that tooth, as it will be stronger and shouldn't give you problems.
