I think so. Bits of my lower front teeth are falling off all the time. My dentist tried tom send me to the hospital to hav something done about it but they never contacted me. Worrying.
Ratcat
This is like half the tooth...
Basically it was where I had a root canal done so the tooth has no real feeling in it, but the filling was pretty large and the tooth has started to disintergrate for the look of it.
Looks like I'll be going to the dentist to have it removed tomorrow.
Ushgarak
Yikes. Well, good luck...
Texas
Ewwwwww, that's what you get for making fun of my toothless hunchback Valentines date
Half the tooth fell off? Hmmmm, never heard of such a thing before
Ratcat
Well it sort of cracked down the middle from what I can see and broke away.
Not a big deal, no feeling it it because the root nerve was removed during the root canal work. Just feels jagged against my tongue. I knew it was gonna go eventually, dentist already told me as much last spring. Guess I'll have to have a bridge or something.
Didn't even feel it fall away, I was eating an ommlette at the time, what I thoughtr was a piece of eggshell must have been a bit of the broken tooth. Guess that's what us ancient 33 year olds have to get used to.

Poor RC
Dont worry, I'm not going to make fun of your old age, in the midst of a medical emergency like this.
Just hold that chin up, and dont worry to much, there always dentures
finti
no things like that might happen and if you had root canal on it just may be sloppy work from the dentist.
I ve heard of others who had root canal and the tooth cracked after some years so ...
and Tex you know a fist can do same and more damaging work to your teeth
Ratcat
Yeah, the root was done when I was 18. Had a massive absess in it, had to be refilled ttwo years ago because the tooth had weakened.
Wasn't a case of if it would crack, but when.
Actuallt it doesn't hurt at all, no nerve in it you see.

Half a tooth? I think we have a new worldrecord here!

I broke the bottom half of one of my canine teeth off in my sleep (grinding) but I've never heard of something like half just falling off...I'm sorry. That kind of stuff is a major pain.
Texas
You should take a picture and post it.

I completely smashed my right front tooth when i got a tennis racket in my mouth at full speed! Bloody painful. Lots of blood and I didn't even realise what I had done until I started pitting bits of tooth out into my hand. And my god you should have seen the size of my lip! Attractive!

Tex: not a good idea...
Anyway, teeth falling of, that reminds me of my accident:
I was playing soccer with my friends at school and I was goalkeeper.
The ball came perfectly in front of me and I dove towards it, I got it but someone didn't saw my "tigerjump" and he kicked (intention was the ball) but he hit my face
piece of my tooth is off, and I was knock-out for a time,... so they say.
I'm still not sure if that last one is true, heck, I don't even remember that one!
finti
is this long ago yers cause you are still dizzy, almost like you are punchdrunk
yerssot
7 years, and still counting
yerssot
one, two, five ofcourse!
yerssot
as a result he will never eat omlets again...
ToMacco
RatCat, if your tooth fell in half, then you know bad shit is going down. Go to the dentist, man!
Ratcat
Well pardon me for eating dinner.
yerssot
Rat, how are you now?
Ushgarak
Sueing for a borken tooth? Might have made sense if the treatment had actually COST Edna anything, or if she in any way harboured a grudge against the guy who did it, and if she could definitviely prove that it was ONLY his fault, and if she was a money-grabbing *****, and so on...
Dim
Anyway..just get it fixed..wouldn't want to get an infection or something.
ToMacco
I hate sitting in a dentist office, and you can hear that drill noise.
yerssot
that's nothing! But those people screaming!
wait...
I love going to the dentist
Texas
That's the American way........................
Texas
I need to make you some of my good old fashioned southern style ommlettess. Been making them for years, and haven't broken a tooth yet
sand person no. 10
i lost half a tooth when i bit on a polo (a mint) although i was drinking tea at the time with half tea and have sugar, might explain the weakened state of my teeth. bloody hurt,
Texas
Holy shark toes Batman!!!
Three British people with weak broken falling out teeth!!!!!!!
You know this isn't exactly helping to end the stereotype that British people have bad teeth
Texas
You know we're in trouble now!
ToMacco
But everyone over there won't use the (
) icon, because the teeth will be all messed up
Texas
Your really asking for it aren't you?
I'm just getting revenge for all the cowboy, 10 gallon hat, sand, steer, hick, president Bush, walker, jokes I've gotten these past 8 months
ToMacco
Anyone with a different. . . ah. . . culture than us, is going to tease us.

If you want strong teeth, drink your milk or take your calcium tablets.
If you want to improve your teeth's looks, have a dentist cap them.
ToMacco
All those overseas, take note
finti
but I am not British.
And we are taking note To so here is another Bush quote:
"It's your money. You paid for it"
ToMacco
I've seen Darth Mauls teeth. They are yellow like Big Bird
finti
I thought they were black... ish
Ratcat
Hmmm, well I'd rather eat more healthily than rely on artificial means. Wish I'd done that in the first place... Oh well, milks good though.
finti
from sane Norwegian cows of course
Gundark
Sorry about your tooth, RC....
I hate going to the dentist. Its quieter than the library in there and then you hear....THE DRILL.
And there you are in the waiting room.....reading Cuspid Annual.
queeq
I always enjoy the pain.
Gundark
I don't think Dustin Hoffman did.
queeq
Olivier did. That's my way of liking it.
Texas
If I ever become super rich and famous, I'll yank out all of my teeth and replace them with sharp titanium teeth like Jaws in James Bond!
ToMacco
If your not careful, I'm gonna punch your teeth out before that!
queeq
When does the show start?
finti
yeah sharls are scary
queeq
But only the first one, Gundy.
Gundark
Yes, but he is handy opening champagne bottles.
finti, whats a freakin sharl ?
queeq
Step into my closet and I'll show you.
finti
oops should have been shark, damn it
Edna Witch
Hmmm anyone still got baby teeth? I do. I still have two premolars on my bottom jaw. No adult teeth to push them out apparently so they should last me a while. Seems kind of weird though still having my milk teeth. I don't have an wisdom teeth either. Well I have haf of one apparently but it is twisted on its side so it won't grow through. I have really strange teeth. Seem to have a lack of them actually. Then of course there was the canine that was going to grow through the roof of my mouth if I didn't have this nasty operation and where hideous train tracks and all sorts of different braces for three years. Drove me nuts! Thank god it is all over now. I hate the dentist! Never letting those poeple near my mouth again!
Dim
Lucky you not to have an wisdom teeth..man mine killed to have taken out.
Edna Witch
There wouldn'ty be any room in my mouth for them. My teeth reach right to the back of the bone. Infact I still don't have the second top right molar either. Great! Another tooth I am missing. And there certainly isn't any room for that one.
queeq
But I'm sure you can bite someone very painfully.
