Snapped tooth / stitches in mouth --- Stitches FELL OUT?!? scroll down
« on: August 27, 2008, 20:42:35 PM »

got pushed over in Reading Gestival on monday morning and landed on a metal trolley thing. I snapped a tooth in half and cut all my mouth up, i;ve been to the hospital and now have stitches inside the mouth and they have taken the nerve  out of my tooth but now I have to wait until sept 16th to go to dentist.
Does anyone know if it is easy enough for them to like rebuild part of a tooth so you dont have a gap anymore? cheers Smiley

Yeah it's easy.  They will just Cap it  Grin or you could just ask the dentist for a set like Jaws from the bond movies.
My 4 front teeth are capped and one at the back as well.   As long as the root is still firm ( dont go wiggling it about) they can cap it,  that will take a week or two as they take a mould from your mouth and get one made up at the lab !   and losing the nerve is not an issue as 3 of mine have been taken out,  and that bit was not nice.

I pretty much did the same thing, but tripped up running for the bus and landed ON the bus step with my tooth pinging off the driver's perspex box.
I went to the dentist and he basically took shards of tooth out of my gum, packed it with some stuff and put a permanent ceramic cap on there and then. I wasn't there for much more than an hour.

ah cool:) yeah they said the root is still firm so that should be ok and yeah the nerve being taken out was not nice. All the injections have just worn away now from this morning so here comes a bit of pain but shouldnt last too long:)

Someone pushed you off ?
reminds me of one night, a few of us were biking up to a mates past a pub on the other side of the road, some guy starts running infront of me, i pedal like sh*t and just got out of the way, he had ran and tried to drop kick me, but the little b****rd missed and landed with his back on the curb.
HA  Angry

No reason, had never seen him before in my life. Ah well, some people ey ?

Anyway for the topic,
i had my front tooth chipped of a very kind mate of mine in middle school, Goes a little something like... hand, head, face, metal pole.  Sad

Chipped quite badly, dentist didnt do anything about it though, as im still growing or that it would cost loads to do so i had may as well wait untill i was 16 then it would be free.
The treatment by the way was to have some purmiment thing put on, it had a strange name but im guessing its the same as a cap  Smiley

Over the past few years its worn itself smooth and isnt that noticable anymore, although im guessing for you its not as simple as that ?
 Undecided

Good luck all the same in getting it sorted  Smiley

until about one hour ago everything was healing up fine but someone knocked into one of the cuts where i have stitches inside the mouth. the stitches havent broke ( i dont think) but the cut has opened back up again, will it heal back up or do i need it looked at?
Thanks

LOOK HERE
to do with same thing so no point in starting new thread.
Some of the stitches in my mouth just fell out.
Does anyone know why this might be? could it be the knot at one end of the stitches dissolved? Its been 7 days meant to dissolve within 10/20days.

There isnt any blood but the cut has fully healed.

I would say they have dissolved already and if it's not bleeding it'll probably be OK.

But what the f#ck do I know, this is why you go to the dentist/doctor...

So now I have to go for root canal surgery on October 7th, I've had people saying that they have heard its really painful haha, is it actually that bad? And what is it? I asked my dentist but he didnt really explain.

i had a crash and nocked my teeth out. the hospital people pushed them back in and they have healed up fine. i also had to have loads of dissolvable stiches. i was lucky. my teeth are still alive so i dont need root canal. but i still dont no what it is. i think it is when they take the nerve out of the tooth so it cannot die and bevcomes emmortal!

Well, to unnerve you, (not) they're gonna drill straigt down into the nerve then remove it, right?

Sounds pretty painful to me!!! You better hope they use a good anaesthetic!
