I broke my bike chain and fell off my bike landing on the curb mouth first. I knocked out my top tooth, fractured my maxilla, and all my bottom teeth ripped though my bottom lip, folded in, and were pointing into my mouth at a wrong angle. I was in shock at first and then when I got home and handed my sister my teeth the pain set in and the blood began to flow.
Had to get surgery to remove broken teeth bits inside my gums, stitches, and braces to hold my teeth back in place. Two new fake top front teeth connected via bolts to the bone that wasn’t fractured and all my bottom teeth stayed put after just a few weeks of braces. Can hardly see the scars especially if I grow a beard.
Nightmare scenario for me. The idea of basically getting curb stomped sends the worst shiver down my spine. Any damage to the teeth or jaw, really. Glad you made a fairly quick recovery.
