Oh no ...

  • So Mother's Day was going just wonderful for me until we were on the way home from my in laws and part of my molar just fell out!

    I had a wisdom tooth pulled last week and this is the tooth that is right next to that spot. I think it had a pretty big filling in it and I am not sure if it was part filling or all filling or all tooth that fell out because it was a white resin filling in that tooth.

    I am going to the dentist in a bit to have it looked at but they said they will not have time to do anything to it today but in case I need any pain meds between now and Wednesday when they can work on it I need to go in today. I almost want to say just pull it since it will not be seen but I am not sure if it will allow my front teeth to slide backwards and I don't want that!

    I have not eaten since it came out because I am scared so I am starving right now

    I just don't have any extra money to deal with this right now and I am betting they will say it needs a lot of work....
  • Hope you can get a solution soon! I feel for you girl. Wishing you the best! Maybe you can sip some soup through a straw?
  • I just got home from the dentist with a new temporary filling. I am going back wednesday to get a permanant one...they can save the tooth!! Yay!

    Now I am off to eat lol
  • That's great news! That has happened to me twice and it has required a crown both times.
  • That is what I was afraid of them needing to do but he said it was not needed. I just can't afford anything more than a filling at the moment and even that is pushing it money wise for me.
  • So sorry to hear about that...I had that happen last month...what I thought was part of my tooth, but was actually tooth colored filling just fell out...terrible feeling! I'm glad it worked out for you.
