This late morning as I ate my "brunch" meal I finished it off with eating a piece of apple. Well the inevitable had happened and I heard a crack as I gave a bite on my half-consumed piece of apple.
I already knew that it was my tooth, it broke of but not completely. I have to pry it out because it is still attached to what was holding it. It didn't hut nor did it after I took it out with my surgical "long nose" pliers.
I pinched the tooth with my pliers and yanked it out with a striking motion with my arm as I hold the plier with my hand. The plier then was able to get it out and it went flying unto the study table beside my bed.
I thought that I lost it but I was able to retrieve it. The tooth definitely is too bad looking because the rot came from the side and unto the other thereby cutting the tooth sideways leaving the root behind.
My worry came into reality because the rest of the tooth was left down below and what I had was the crown. Now I am worried that it will cause some infection in the future or maybe the gums would heal around it and enclose it which is good for the latter if that will be the one that will happen.
It is weird that the rot didn't reached the root of this tooth yet considering the extent of the damage. So I am still observing what will happen and that is what I can do for now because I am frightened to go to the doctor/dentist.
I am just praying that nothing bad will come from this. I still have to worry about my other teeth which has a similar bad shape. If a more worse issues to happen I just want to afford the cost of rehabilitation of my problematic teeth which is now had been battered by decay due to the changes in my mouth brought about by my Leontiasis condition.
Color me impressed. Frightening it broke off leaving the root though. While I'm glad you say there is no pain, tooth infections can't be ignored. I'm guessing the likelihood is much less since there isn't any pain, but please monitor closely.
I tend to shy away from doctors as much as possible. One thing I use to help myself when coming down sick is use natural antibiotics. My favorite is oregano oil. Garlic works as well.

Please have your teeth fixed when you can. Most don't understand how serious the infections can be. Keeping you in my prayers.
I can't even look at the inside of my mouth @practicalthought all because of what happened to my facial bone due to Leontiasis.
I am just happy enough that I am able to control the damage and I am a bit sure that it will not get worse due to my medications and supplements like Calcium and Vitamin D3 in order for my bone to absorb Calcium rather than leaching out to my bloodstream.
My teeth were a casualty like my weakened bones but I will have to see what I can do for them.
