Yea, so I was eating a waffle, and bit on the fork. I know, I'm dumb. But it's a permanent tooth and I'm not sure what to do. Will it grow back to normal or what? My friend told me to drink a lot of milk and yea that would probably help but can I get some answers on what to do? I just don't want to have to get a fake tooth.

Once the tooth is broken, it will not "grow back". You should have found an emergency dental office to go to. They could have repaired the tooth. You may be able to get a veneer, but to make it look less noticeable, you may have to get more than one tooth done (probably need to get your 4 top teeth done). Go to a dentist ASAP.

Generally a loose tooth will be OK in a few days-when you get your braces 'tightened' it loosens the teeth and a few days later they are firmed up again.
I wouldn't take the risk of not calling a dentist -A visit will be cheaper than wishing you had in the long run .

LOL. Oh im sorry, I shouldn't snicker lol. I even have had a loose everlasting tooth formerly too (mine replaced into by using braces). The gum will improve and it will go decrease back to time-honored. interior the intervening time, dont chew anymore forks lol.

Hey
That happened to me also, but my tooth eventually went back to normal!
Just whatever you do, dont wiggle it!
It will just get more wiggley, and might fall out!
Just try to leave it alone, and it should get better!
If it doesnt, I sugjest you visit a dentist, and see what you can do to prevent it to get better!
Good Luck!

You need to get to the dentist asap before you lose the tooth.

Yes, it will tighten back up.....just don't keep messing with it with your tongue or fingers. Also, try to avoid biting with it. Drinking milk or anything else isn't going to help.

the WHOLE tooth? wow you must have been REALLY hungry!
no teeth don't grow in any way, they just rot away
nows the time to pick out a blinging grill, (*silver looks like platinum)
