Accidents always seem to happen at the worst time! Recently we saw a patent who was at the gym playing a game of pick up basketball when someone tripped right in front of him causing him to stumble and go face, or should I say, teeth first into the wall! Fortunately, the damage to his teeth was limited but it did cause him to lose the bottom half of one of his two front teeth. Thankfully the internet provided him with good advice–if you break or lose a tooth due to trauma put it in milk. We were able to use the broken piece and some dental bonding to make his tooth look good as new. Thanks to the education, training and experience of Virginia Beach Dentist Dr. Morgan and the quick actions of our patient, we were able to save our patient from needing more extensive dental work or possibly even a crown.
If you have broken or knocked out a tooth from trauma, call Dr. Morgan’s office immediately to see if your tooth can be saved. There are many reasons why you will smile being a patient of Dr. Morgan.
