Help! I broke my teeth! I was eating a carrot at lunch and when I bit it my front teeth broke off.?

I haven%26#039;t been to a dentist in like 5 years(last time was when I was 9), but I always thought I took pretty good care of my teeth. I knew I had a few cavities but I didn%26#039;t think they were bad. Anyway where my teeth broke they%26#039;re black inside. What up with that? It didn%26#039;t bleed hardly at all, and I can see the other part inside the gum. Is there any quick cheap way to fix my teeth? Like some kind of glue maybe? I%26#039;m scared of dentists and my mom is gonna have a fit when she sees me. What can I do?

Put the piece of tooth that broke off in milk right away! When you go to your densist there is a chance he can glue it back on but please if you want that chance put it in milk!
Reply:Ouch!! that must of hurt. You need to see a dentist.
Reply:I%26#039;m so sorry. Poor you, that is horrible.





I know dentists are scary, but you really must go and see one. If you leave it, it will proably get worse.!





Don%26#039;t worry. I%26#039;m sure everything will be ok.





Dentists are here to help you. !!
Reply:You are going to need to go to the dentist ASAP and get it fixed.
Reply:Ashley is correct.. drop the tooth in some milk and head to the dentist ASAP!! My son fell and broke a tooth when he was young and the dentist was able to glue it back on.
Reply:OMG, now you HAVE to go to the dentist. He/she has to remove what is left of the rotted teeth inside. Then you will have an option to put in basically a couple of false teeth in the front which will be cemented to the gums. This will be costly now, and what is even worse is that there might be more problems that you need to fix. I can%26#039;t tell you exactly all they will do because I don%26#039;t really know your situation.





You really don%26#039;t need to be afraid of the dentist. It%26#039;s not a big deal! It is very important to go to the dentist every six months for a checkup and deep, thorough cleaning of the teeth. If you don%26#039;t it can lead to bigger problems and more money to pay.





Good luck.
Reply:There is nothing you can do to fix it on your own and could really hurt yourself (like get an infection that could kill you) if you try. You need to go to the dentist right away, the longer you wait the harder it will be for them to fix. My boyfriend had his tooth broken in half (adult front) and he had to have a cap put on his tooth. I hope you have medical insurance and if not your mother needs to apply to the state for some if it%26#039;s offered. Good luck!
Reply:I feel for you! I did something similar when I was young. I was lying in bed and kicked up in bed to get up, and my knee hit my mouth and broke my two front teeth. Not too much, just enough to take off the extra length, so ever since, my teeth are as short as the other teeth around it. I%26#039;ve always wondered about having it %26#039;fixed%26#039;. Technology is way better these days, but you will still have to go to a dentist to have is fixed or at least filed to smooth off the jagged ridge from the break. (mine were filed and barely anything more came off) I forget the name of it, but you can have a lengthing veneer put on it and it will look good as new. But, again, you have to fess up to your mom. You did not break it on purpose. There is no reason for her to get mad at you. If she does, it%26#039;s not YOU that she is mad at. She will know that an accident can happen at any time. If she knows about it... then you two can start to work something out as to when it will get fixed or other alternatives. I still have my shorter front teeth and that is who I am. It%26#039;s no big deal as long as the break is not too much or hurt. You might have some problem with sensitivity. Get a sensitive tooth toothpaste to help. At the very least, a filing and check up should be done, but talk to the dentist. There is no %26#039;quick fix%26#039; to fixing teeth. best of luck.
Reply:Unfortunately there%26#039;s nothing you can do to fix it yourself. I can guarantee you won%26#039;t be able to glue it back or anything like that. You NEED to get to a dentist. Set your fear aside and GO! If it broke and it%26#039;s all black inside....that sounds like it%26#039;s rotted out, and that%26#039;s NOT good. But a good professional dentist can fix it.





I blew off dentists for years, and I really regret it now. I%26#039;m sitting here trying to get used to a mouth full of FALSE teeth, and I%26#039;m paying $16,000 for the priviledge.





Whatever you do, PLEASE don%26#039;t even TRY to glue it. I can just see you with your lips and tongue all super glued together! That would really make your mom%26#039;s day!
Reply:The reason your broken teeth are black inside, is that they are rotten. You have put off seeing a dentist for far to long. And you will have to pay the price. If you do not go, you could end up with abscesses. Bacteria will get into your blood stream. This can even cause death.
Reply:Poor Thing!! I hate dealing with Teeth problems. I wanted to let you know about a company that offers up to 80% savings on your dental work for only $11.95 a month. This also includes Free Prescription, Free Vision and Free Chiropractic Care. If you need any help or anything let me know. I could look up the closest dentist near you who accepts these benefits.





Good luck to you,


Christy
