I was sitting on the computer, then I felt a dust sensation in my mouth, then a small piece. So I instantly freaked out and spat a piece of tooth. When I felt one of my front tooth with my tongue, it felt very rough and I knew there was a piece missing. A piece of my front tooth's back was missing a long with a bit of the top part.
I want to know what could cause this, and if Im going to loose more parts of that tooth.
I do not suffer cavities and my teeth are almost perfectly a lined. People tell me I have perfect teeth, but after this I don't think so :( . I'm 20 years old and I take good care of my teeth and I also drink a lot of milk, twice a day.
I also noticed that the tooth next to it looks like its pushing that tooth to the front a bit, could that be a cause too?
thank you.
Right now your dentist can perhaps fix it with bonding. Or, you made need a crown, but leaving it is a sure way to wind up with a root canal or tooth loss.
Please make an appt with your dentist and have it properly evaluated.
Best to you and let us know how you do.
