Yes, a broken tooth is always considered an emergency. Even if your broken/chipped tooth is not bleeding excessively and/or you are not in pain, it is necessary to see a dentist as soon as possible for a professional assessment of the damage. This is because the tooth that is broken/chipped may have sustained damage internally and this is not always visible or obvious.
