OUCH! This post gave me goose bumps and made me cringe a little... poor girl! Tyson also fell on tile floor, but instead of hurting teeth, he bit his lip and has a permanent scar/bubble on his lip and a little black mark. He was about 15 mos old. The good news is, she'll eventually lose her front teeth and get new ones! :)
I took her to the dentist and she filed them so they'd be smooth (that pic is from before) and xrayed for any obvious root / permanent tooth damage and there was none. After they grow in some more we'll have them filed a little more straight across and bonded. If they turn colors she'll have to have a root canal. (but that ISN'T going to happen!).

That picture makes me cringe! Do you try to fix something like that, or just wait until her new ones come in?

Oooooh! That's got to hurt. Thank goodness there was no root or nerve damage. I guess Lindsey will just have a nice spot in the front for straws.
Oh no!!!!! Ouch, ouch, ouch!!!
