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

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:Quote:

Are you under six years old? if so, don't worry, it'll grow back. Just pop it under your pillow and 'ching-ching'
...but don't sleep with your head under the pillow, that tooth fairy's a thiefQuote:

:(
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.Quote:

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.Quote:

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:

How did your tooth get knocked out?Quote:

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.Quote:

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.Quote:

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