Jagged tooth

[IceProdInc]

If i have a broken tooth in the back of my mouth , will it fall in the back of my throat ? Im scared to eat i just broke it a couple of minutes ago , and i dont wanna choke on it

I believe there is a reflex that your tongue will prevent that. If it is chipped and it doesn’t hurt you can get it fixed later. The risk is if there is a crack that can allow bacteria into the gums. That is an expensive fix.

The roots of your back teeth are deep and thick. If there is a crack in what is left, then it could crack more. They sell temporary crown glue at stores. Don’t glue in anything that came out, but you can coat what is left to keep it where it is.
