My poor husband broke the bottom part of one of his upper front teeth when he was a teenager. He was swimming and somehow hit it on the concrete pool. It was repaired and lasted until yesterday. I guess after nearly 50 years it had worn out. The good news is that it doesn’t hurt. I need to call our dentist in the morning. Why do these things always happen on the weekend.

Something similar happened to me some time ago. I hope it doesn't happen again. I hated having half a front tooth. I kept wanting to keep my mouth closed.

I hope they are able to fix it again for him. 50 years is a long time, that was a good dentist.

I guess the dentist did a great job before. It needs to be repaired soon.

Just now
Murphy’s law: anything bad that can happen will happen on a holiday or a weekend. I did that, too. They capped it in the Navy. The cap is still there after 46 years.

Well done for keeping it so long. My Grandson broken his front tooth and had it repaired about three times before it finally was repaired properly ….its lasted about three years so far. Hope you hubby got his fixed okay.

Sorry to learn that your husband's tooth fell out after 50 years after being repaired after he was in a pool accident as a teenager.

It seems like the week for dental problems. I hope your hubby can get into the dentist. I have a root canal tooth that's infected, I have a filling that's fallen out twice; and I need a cleaning.

It will be good to see the dentist, because there might be some underlying decay that weakened it. I hope not. I am glad it does not hurt. 50 years is a good run.

I am sorry Marie. My husband has the same problem, he broke his upper front teeth while ice skating. Part of the repair broke while we were at my mom's apartment in Milan and it was a Sunday.
