I was eating pizza and heard a crunching noise on my bridge?!


Question: Hi. I'm really scared. I have a 10 front teeth bridge which stands on 4 teeth. Canins and molars so no front teeth. My doctor somehow suggested me not to bite on my front teeth since my bridge may get lose from the back. Well..I thought biting like something hard, but I was just biting slow on my pizza when I heard one single "pock" on the back on one of my molars. I got freaked out. Everything seems normal now, but I wonder if something happened there, would I know?
I have no pain nothing, I'm just freaked that something broke. The brige is just 4 months old.

THANK YOU!

It would be VERY unusual for your prosthesis to come loose but, that being said, to ease your mind call your doc and have them check it. I wouldn't charge you anything to do that.

Maybe it was just a hard piece of crust and you thought it was your molar? I did that before and thought I like cracked my wizdom tooth but I didn't :]
