Author Topic: Piece o' my tooth just kinda fell off  (Read 1594 times)

I've not taken good care of my teeth, but I haven't had any major incidents up until now. What I thought was something stuck between two molars was actually a small portion of tooth, which silently sloughed off and left behind a hole that I can't stop running my tongue over. Tooth doesn't hurt whatsoever, but I'm having a panic attack now because I let this get bad enough for a piece of my only set of teeth to be gone forever. Wooooo.

0/1000000 I BRUSH ONCE A DAY

Did you have a filling on this tooth?
I had a filling in one of my molars as a child and then some years later the filling and half the tooth fell away.
It's not painful, but if you look at the inside of that tooth it is black, so I guess it's dead.

You may want to get a dentist to give it a look though. You can still get infections in the tooth. He may want to remove it though.

I've never had any dental fillings or other cavities, with the exception of one time when I did need a tooth to be removed: a sudden cavity devastated the inside of it, causing it to cave in all of a sudden without any warning or previous decay. It was very weird.

i have perfect teeth but my dental hygiene is slightly lacking as in i only brush once, sometimes twice a day and floss about every other day

8/10 because i brush twice a day (3 if i'm at home all day) but floss only when i have a lot of time because w/ braces it takes loving days
i might have a cavity rn though so it's more like a 3/10

Solid 7/10. My teeth are probably better than before but I still have a stuffton of plaque.

my dental hygiene is terrible but despite that I have very healthy teeth

this is me

had an old filling drilled out and refilled 2 days ago. i'm over 50% british so my teeth are ugly by default

I used to never brush my teeth when I was younger so now they are permanently yellow even though I brush twice a day now

I brush every night and floss every other night
