Last night, half-asleep, I stumbled to the kitchen for water and BAM—face-first into the open cabinet door. Now my front tooth is throbbing like crazy, and I'm googling home remedies at 3 am. Ice packs, saltwater rinses, even tried clove oil (tastes awful btw). Anyone else had a weird dental mishap like this? Could use some distraction stories while I wait for the dentist to open...
Ouch, cabinet doors are sneaky like that... reminds me of when I chipped my tooth biting into a sandwich (yep, soft bread—go figure). Dentist said sometimes teeth have tiny cracks already and just need a weird angle to act up. Hope yours feels better soon!
Cabinet doors are sneaky, but sandwiches? That's a new one for me. Did your dentist say anything about how to spot these tiny cracks before they become a bigger issue? I've had weird tooth pains come and go randomly, and now I'm wondering if they're related to hidden cracks or something else entirely. Also, did you end up needing any special treatment after chipping it on soft bread (still can't wrap my head around that one...)? I've always assumed crunchy or hard foods were the main culprits, but now I'm second-guessing everything I eat. Maybe it's time to get one of those dental check-ups with the fancy x-rays—anyone know if those actually catch tiny fractures early enough to prevent bigger problems later?
