It never dawned on me to try wax on the lower teeth! It certainly would have been worth a try!
A root canal? I was worried that the trauma of the collisions would cause damage to the roots, so apparently the fear wasn't unfounded. I guess I don't feel quite so foolish for having called the problem in.
I can relate to wanting the front teeth to be functional again! I was very freaked out about this problem last week, due to possible consequences to my job (as I went into in earlier posts). This week, I think I can pretty much handle whatever bumps come along in the road.
Is teeth colliding common?
