[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So sorry OP, what a total bummer.  Just try and internalize that fact that it really will be okay (and certainly could have been worse!).  My brother knocked out his front tooth when he was about ten??  They also put it back in and it lasted pretty much forever . . . I think eventually a bond on the front/a root canal . . . but he was fine/didn't dwell on it/think about it - just dealt with the occasional need to upkeep/retreat/whatever.  And it looked just fine/great!  A drag but he very quickly got used to it and moved on/never really thought/worried about it.[/quote]

Thank you! He's handling it better than me..[/quote]

I find that with so many things like this that happen with my son. They are so resilient and the body heals much faster and better when you are that young. My friend's had his front teeth knocked out in college during a drunken fight with a fellow frat bro. I think he had that flipper thing after but it was called something else.[/quote]

My child was involved in a traumatic accident and is handling it better than me.  Teens get a bad rap but a lot of them are able to live in the moment where us adults can catastrophic their future.  I will tell you that exploring all these dental options makes me do impressed with how sophisticated they can be with teeth.  Things have changed a lot in 20 years in the dental industry![/quote]
