Tooth shard cutting tongue... ; ;
An upper back molar has cracked and as result of that there is a shard that's poking at my tongue, causing pain whenever I speak, swallow or try to eat. The tooth itself is asymptomatic, but my dentist can't have me in until late next week. In the meantime, it really hurts my tongue and makes life miserable. The shard of tooth is SHARP.
I've tried putting orthodontic wax on it, the kind they sell for braces, but it won't stay. Any ideas on what I could put on the sharp piece of tooth to prevent it from cutting my tongue? My tongue has actually bled a little from this, and it's only been like this for 2 days. Many more to come...
Any kind of ideas from duct tape to cotton balls are welcome. I'm desperate here.
