• Mon, 11:10: Ok. It's split completely so temporarily glued back. Long term is extraction, plate while it heals then see if bridge or implant. #sharkenvy

Aaagh! I've just broken a molar eating peanuts and have an appointment for tomorrow for my first ever piece of crown/bridge/whatever they call it-stroke-decide to recommend. Tonight is not a good time to hear such things can compromise one's life.

(I know I've been very lucky until now)

I hope yours gets fixed and mine doesn't turn out iffy.

This crown is over 25 years old, has already been glued back together once, and is the one right in the middle so it gets all the hard work of biting. You should have a lot less worries about a molar.

In the end it was, don't hate me please... an appointment for a new filling!

Glad it was an easy fix
