Yes, we do have a nutcracker, but for some reason my husband decided to open the shells with his teeth. One of his teeth cracked. I heard it and he felt it. Our dentist is in Europe until January 4. If we go to the urgent care is this something they can temporarily bond? We saved the piece of the tooth that cracked off. Thanks janet<\/p>\n<p>Janet \u2013 The urgent care is not the place to go for a cracked tooth. They don\u2019t have the dental equipment needed to x-ray teeth or the materials to restore them.<\/p>\n<p>You will be able to find a local dentist who accepts <a href=\"https:\/\/mirandalacydds.com\/emergency-dentist-plano.html\">dental emergencies<\/a> to examine and x-ray your husband\u2019s tooth. Since tooth bonding is needed, we recommend a cosmetic dentist to provide the restoration. A cosmetic dentist knows how to use and manipulate composite bonding material so that it matches natural teeth.<\/p>\n<p>You didn\u2019t mention when the accident with your husband\u2019s tooth happened, but he really needs to see a dentist right away.<\/p>\n<p>A lingering toothache, a cracked or chipped tooth, a bleeding tooth,\u00a0 a lost filling or crown, and various types of trauma to the teeth or tongue should be considered dental emergencies.<\/p>\n<p>Although it may appear that the only damage is a cracked tooth, there may be other trauma to the tooth that is more easily and effectively treated if he sees a dentist right away.<\/p>\n<p>This post is sponsored by <a href=\"https:\/\/mirandalacydds.com\/\">Plano, TX cosmetic dentist<\/a> Dr. Miranda Lacy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We received a gallon bucket full of pecans in the shell from a friend.
