tooth

On Wednesday, I finally lost my first tooth!

When I visited my new dentist in mid-August, she estimated that I had several months left before my first tooth would fall out. This timeline was based on my x-rays. The roots were starting to shorten and my permanent tooth was beginning to come up. However, I am about one year behind with tooth loss.

Then, about two weeks ago, my tooth suddenly got wiggly. I opted not to wiggle it very much, mostly because it felt weird.

On the morning that I lost my tooth, I was in the bath and my wiggly tooth seemed to make a crunch sound/feeling. But it was still not terribly wiggly.

That afternoon, I was talking to a friend in class and my tooth popped out onto the carpet. like it just popped out. without warning. My friend rushed over and got one of the teachers. My tooth was wrapped up and sent home with me.

That evening, I rewrapped my tooth up and put it under my pillow.

The toothfairy brought me a Lego set.
