Hit my teeth together?

Question

I Hit my teeth together (bogs head bumped them) and the felt numb now they hurt just a bit put when I press with my finger (not tap my teeth though) the pain feels a bit sharper, it has been going down in the last 30 mins though (happened an hour ago) What to do? wait till tommorow and see? I am paranoid

Answer 1

You should be fine. The trauma of the bump just caused the numbing sensation and of course the pain. I would suck on some ice to help with the pain and maybe take some motrin or tylenol. The pain may last for a few days and don't be surprised if your teeth even feel a little lose. You should feel better in a few days. If you have any major swelling though, I would contact the dentist for an appointment tomorrow.

Answer 2

Yeah you are paranoid....at least wait till tomorrow and see how they feel then
