Scratched Tooth???? Stupid but need help?!


Question: Scratched Tooth???? Stupid but need help?
okay so while eating lunch, i began to scrape/scrath my front tooth with a fork. Yes its stupid but i did, so now i have little black marks on my tooth that look like scratches or scrapes. I don't know if i chipped it or just scraped it and it looks nasty. Can i fix it and if so, how?

Answers:

You probably scraped your tooth- and possibly, if it was a 'soft' metal fork, it may have even left marks similar to what a piece of charcoal would make on a sheet of paper. My advice to you is this: Go to your dentist immediately. He/ she will assess the damage, and it may either be saved with a quick or, if it is very serious, you may have to go under dental surgery of some sort ((replacing the tooth with a false one, veneers (not a very good idea, as it ruins your teeth even more in my opinion), filling in the scratches, etc.))
