Title: broke a tooth
Post by: Jen on February 15, 2009, 09:07:23 PM
Argh.  I know Jenn will be able to relate to tooth woes.  I cracked off about a quarter of a molar tonight, a tooth with a giant filling it from back when I was a kid.  Broke it eating Bottlecaps candy of all things.  Now I've got to go in and get it fixed with a crown.  Yuck.  :(

ugh, I'm so sorry.  I've done that too and then let it go too long and had the worst toothache of my life so good for you that you're going in right away to get it fixed!

I go in Thursday afternoon to get the repair work started.  I've gone through this before, so it isn't too big a deal, though it doesn't feel all that good either.  Dumb teeth.

Jen, I feel your pain!  :grouphug: Broken Molars are the worst.

I waited too long with mine, after the old fillings broke away taking enamel with them, crowns weren't an option anymore, and I had to have 2 teeth pulled, and now am saving for ridiculously $$$ dental implants.

I am so glad to hear you are getting the repair started soon! I bet you will never look at Bottlecaps candy the same way again. I broke my teeth eating Popcorn, to this day I can't enjoy it like I used too!

I hope your repair goes well!
