Another Tooth Accident

Rob took the kids sledding today at Lundstrom Park. As they were heading up the hill to make the first run down the hill, Ashlee slipped and fell and hit her mouth on the icy ground. One of her front teeth (yes, they are her permanent teeth!) broke in half. Rob tried to look for it, but Brynlee came sliding down right where Ashlee had fallen. He never did find it. We took her to our neighbor who is a dentist and he said it didn't go to the nerve, and it wouldn't have mattered if we did find the tooth because they can't really glue it back together. He said to take her to our dentist tomorrow (or whenever they open again after the holidays) and they'll probably just put some tooth filler to make it the same length as her other front tooth. The one that broke hadn't come in all the way so they'll probably have to file it down when it comes in all the way to make it the same length as the other one. She doesn't seem to be in any pain. In fact, she ate soup for dinner and had a shake also so you would think that would be hot and cold enough to cause pain if it did hurt.
