Broken tooth

Broken tooth
Friday evening as I was brushing and flossing my teeth I felt a hard piece in my mouth.   It was from one of my upper teeth that had broken off.  fortunately is was a piece from the back of the tooth and it did not hurt.

So Monday morning as early as I could I called my dentist and got an appointment for Tuesday morning.

This morning Halloween, I went to my dentist and I was accosted by all kinds of bugs, spiders and devil horns.    The dental hygienist and others wore bugs or other such creepy things on their heads.   The Dentist had the devil horns on his head and I laughing told him I was not sure I wanted the devil to work on my tooth.  It was a fun beginning and they even took a picture while I was it the dentist chair.  The procedure wasn’t too uncomfortable. My lip still feels three times as big as normal.   The area was frozen.

I was concerned that the tooth would have to be capped but that wasn’t necessary.   He was able to fill it and we are hoping that it will hold.
