Craps. I just broke a chunk of tooth off.

4. Hi there, Magical Thyme

I've recently had that experience! The tooth, a molar, had been cracked, and one night, FLOSSING (o the irony) it broke off and flew across my bathroom. It was not painful.

The dentist, due to the type of tooth break, gave me two options. Crown it ($900) or fix it with a big ol' filling. I'm fixed-income girl, so I chose the filling. (much to his dentisty chagrin.) He told me it probably would last 5 years or so, if I was lucky. So far, so good...six month's in!

Hope this helps!

Good luck!
