Knocked out tooth

[Cosmo]

Got a tooth knocked out last night and I'm now in work with a front tooth less (doesnt look the best with having to go to a couple of meetings :rolleyes: )

Any advice people? What happens now? New tooth, leave the gap?

cad e on sceal??

[wws]

try superglue (i take it you still have the tooth though?)

[Cosmo]

Yeah, I still have it - just wondering if the dentist will be able to whack it back in

You should have gone to A & E last night.
Get to a dentist ASAP and hopefully they can help you out.

Same thing happed to one of our players (Colie James) last season in a match Vs. UCD, he went up for a header, a UCD player went up just after him and when they were both coming back down his teeth got lodged in the ucd players head, when they landed, the fall broke out 4 of his front teeth. Physio put them in milk and he was rushed to the hospital, one onf the teeth was missing, they found it in the ucd players head ! :eek:

Remember that! Think it was Podge McWalter who was our player involved. Nasty clash... Both were out for a couple of weeks, I think?

Are you under six years old? if so, don't worry, it'll grow back. Just pop it under your pillow and 'ching-ching'

[Sinéad]

I broke my front door before....not nice...there's the choice of getting a cap on it or a crown....

Either way it will cost you a few quid....

Just as well it wasnt glass then!!! :rolleyes: :o

[Sinéad]

Oh here.....I try offer some advice and my poor tooth becomes the brunt of all your jokes....

:(

Back from the dentist - she 'cemented' it back in but said it would come out again soon - just a short term solution til i decide what i want to do long term. Apparently the root/ crown yoke might be a waste of money cos she said it mightnt even work for me!!! So probably have to get a fake tooth eventually - and me only 23 :mad: !!!!

Btw, A and E?? Waste of time, they can do nothing for ye and dont want to know!!

This is where insurance comes into play.
You need to look at your options.
Technically you've been disfigured.


Btw, A and E?? Waste of time, they can do nothing for ye and dont want to know!!

They may have been able to help when it happened but I guess it depends where you're from. Hospitals with minimal services probably wont be able to deal with dental issues.

There's a dental hospital in Dublin at the back of Trinity where the students train and they deal with A&E as far as I know.

Such as?

A and E? Mater didnt want to know - that dental hospital closer at 9 during the week too.

Sure f_-k it, its only a tooth :rolleyes:

Btw sinead, you're hardly that Longford girl that met a few of us drogs in switzerland and then you were on our same plane as us to France :eek:

[Peadar]

Such as?

How did your tooth get knocked out?
If you're happy enough to pay the costs yourself then don't worry about it.

As someone who is also just back from the dentist following a similar problem (front tooth split and half came out) Stick with it and see if the crown or implant is feasible. I had a root canal and reconstruction job carried out.

As I am not covered by PRSI or Medical Card it has just set me back the guts of €500 with no guarantees tha tit will last.

[Cosmo]

Jaysus, she quoted me €1,500 - dont know if id want to bother with it myself cos as you said even after the hassle and spending the money you're not guaranteed it'll last. Must think about it over the next couple of weeks and decide.

Soccerc this was a whole tooth unfortunately - though a few years ago i lost half a tooth (again all my own fault :rolleyes: !!) and got a temporary cap on it - has worked a charm :D

Peadar, all my own fault unfortunately, but to honest it wouldnt bother me getting a loan out if i could get it properly sorted!!

PRSI is insurance, you should get onto the the tax office on Lower Mount St. in Dublin and find out if you're entitled to claim off that.
I apologise in advance if they've since moved from that location.

Andy Myler, your old mate lost four teeth on his debut for us against Crumlin.. 4 grand it's costing to get fixed

No - I've never been to Switzerland....and can people stop stalking me..... :D

[Peadar]

and can people stop stalking me..... :D

Now now Sinéad, I told you, I was stalking Richard Dunne and Jon Macken.
You just got in the way. :p

[Sinéad]

I wish you wouldn't delve so deep into my private life...

Richard, John and I just happened to be in the same place, at the same time... ;)

Can you imagine if a tabloid got word of this :D

[Peadar]

Richard, John and I just happened to be in the same place, at the same time... ;)


I'd better not mention the presence of Stephen Carr so then... :D

[Sinéad]

I swear - I don't do 'foursomes' :rolleyes:

[Peadar]

I swear - I don't do 'foursomes' :rolleyes:

That's ok. From what I've seen of Macken, he's not up to much and prefers to watch from the bench... :D
