OMG my temporary dental bridge just came out half way through a restaurant meal. It is my front upper teeth so really very noticeable. No way to contact dentist until Monday - WTF should I do? I pushed it back in but not sure if I should remove it until I seen the dentist as I am quite scared of swallowing the bloody thing.

Any advice welcome - can I glue it back temporarily? Thanks x

There are emergency dentists at weekends.

If you call 111 they will be able to book you an appointment tomorrow morning at a dentist. It’s Nhs and you pay around £35.
That’s in a city so if you are more rural that might not be the case.

You can also buy emergency kits that contain glue you can use for this type of issue.

And I don’t think you will swallow it. It’s all scary but actually you will be fine. As it’s temporary maybe just glue it until you get to your regular dentist on Monday.

Good luck!

I’ve had so many incidents like this over the years. I remember the crying and panicked phone calls I used to make. I now know the solutions because I’ve been there.
I hope you manage ok.
Boots sell the glue kits. Also some other chemists.
