Today I put some chewing gum in my mouth, the tablet type, and it landed lengthways between my two molars at the back left of my mouth.
I bit down and heard a crack, not a loud crack but a crack nonetheless. I've taken a picture (please excuse it's nature!) and wondered if anyone could reassure me that it's not too bad!
I hate dentists and haven't been for probably about ten years. My teeth are fine apart from this.
I wouldn't say it hurts, I can just feel a slight pressure there, but not overly painful.
My partner had a look and said the crack doesn't look particularly fresh, and that maybe it's been there a while and I've just disturbed it.
Any opinions welcome, I'm very worried about having to go to the dentist and I'm concerned how much it would cost!
