I had dental surgery like, a month ago. Posted about it here. Instead of a front tooth I’ve got a metal (titanium I think?) cap sticking out of my gums. The tip of my tongue constantly touches it and I’m really over it.
The weirdest part is every time I brush my teeth it feels cold for like an hour. The button has a female drive to it (I think it’s Torx?) and it holds onto toothpaste.
At least I’m off my no biting things diet. There’s stuff that’s still impractical to eat but I can have sandwiches now.
On the 2nd of June.
Could you use dental wax/silicone to cover the post for now? This is commonly used to temporarily cover for orthodontic brackets in your mouth to prevent gum/check irritation. The stuff is cheap too. $2 will get you a pack in the dental section of your local pharmacy/grocery store.
