Teeth are strong. They bite through hard taffy and apples, carrots and well-done steak. They've often doubled as scissors, slicers, can openers, and every other tool known to man. But unfortunately, they are not in fact a universal tool. They are not quite that strong. And if you chose to push the limits (or just have an accident) you'll find out the painful way that teeth are not invincible.
He left work early to figure things out. He was feeling like he would need surgery or something because it was such a radiant pain that he was feeling in his mouth. By time he called the dentist it was too late in the day. Tame was left to his own miserable condition for the night. As he sat there thinking about his sad state, he watched Cast Away on TNN.
Chips and breaks are usually more serious than fractures. Why? This is because when pieces of your teeth break off, it could expose the living tissue and nerves beneath the hard outer shell. That translates to pain. And often infection.
Tame cringed but felt a lot of empathy at that moment. No one truly understands unless they have felt that pain, then they would do the same thing, he thought to himself.
Baby teeth help guide adult teeth into proper positions. They also contribute to the health of gums. Older kids will also have adult teeth that especially need to be protected. In sports like football, basketball, and even soccer can lead to serious teeth damage. It could be a high-flying ball, a kick in the mouth, a collision with another player, or falling face-first on the ground. Ouch.
There are several ways teeth can be fixed. Sometimes all it takes is a small filling or bonding to "fill in the gap" and reinforce the surface of the teeth. For more cosmetic reasons, you might get a dental veneer - which acts kind of like a fake fingernail, except for your teeth. And much more durable.
For more serious breaks, your cosmetic dentist in Sandy, UT might use a crown or cap, which basically replaces your outer layer of tooth with a strong, tooth-shaped cap. Worst case scenario, you'll have to undergo a root canal (ouch, and yikes) or lose your tooth completely.
The dentist further explained that these pains we feel are much like the warning lights flashing in a car telling us to check our bodies just to make sure there isn't something wrong. Tame's choice to see the dentist in Sandy, UT was a good one.
